Objective:To explore the application value of the family-centered nursing model and home care platform in PICC nursing of elderly tumor patients, in order to provide reference for PICC nursing of elderly tumor patients.Methods:A total of 122 elderly tumor patients admitted to Boao Hengda International Hospital, Hainan Province from October 2017 to October 2019 were selected and divided into control group (61 cases) and observation group (61 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group received routine care. The observation group combined family-centered care with home care platform for nursing intervention. Before and 3 months after intervention, the self-management ability, quality of life and mental resilience of the two groups were evaluated by Cancer Patients PICC Self-Management scale(CPPMS), 36-item Short Form Health Survey(SF-36) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC). The incidence of complications during the observation period and service volume was recorded.Results:There was no significant difference in the score of CPPMS,SF-36, CD-RISC before intervention between the two groups( P>0.05). The CPPSM scores of the observation group and the control group after intervention were (144.21±8.93) points and (125.85±10.52) points, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 10.392, P<0.05). The scores of social function, life vitality, physical pain, physical function, physical role limitation, emotional role limitation, mental health and overall health were (70.34±5.96),(68.27±5.01),(63.46±4.57),(58.53±5.78),(59.74±6.49),(60.32±5.69),(59.83±6.72),(66.58±6.76) points in the observation group, and (65.32±6.04), (65.33±6.57), (58.35±4.92), (54.51±4.82), (55.64±6.12), (54.59±6.42), (55.67±5.06), (62.14±4.77) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.779-5.943, P<0.05). The CD-RISC scores of the observation group and the control group after intervention were (82.41±8.79) points and (73.39±7.64) points, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 6.049, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the complication rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). The number of calls, consultations, and door-to-door services were (6.77±1.27), (6.34±1.92), (2.58±0.52) times/person in the observation group, and (4.52± 1.48), (4.06±1.41), (2.03±0.19) times/person in the control group, the difference was statistically significant( t values were 9.011, 7.475, 7.759, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with conventional care, the family-centered care model and home care platform have higher application value in elderly patients with PICC oncology, which can effectively improve the PICC management ability and quality of life of patients, and further improve the psychological flexibility. It is worthy of promotion and application.
