Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the effects of problem-oriented respiratory rehabilitation nursing on lung function, activity ability, length of hospital stay, and retention time of closed chest drainage tube in patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection for lung cancer, so as to provide a basis for improving the prognosis of patients with lung cancer surgery.
Methods:A total of 119 patients with lung cancer who underwent thoracoscopic radical resection for lung cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from October 2023 to June 2024 were selected and randomly divided into the intervention group (n=59) and the control group (n=60). The control group received routine respiratory rehabilitation nursing of thoracic surgery. On the basis of the treatment and guidance received by the control group, the intervention group implemented problem-oriented respiratory rehabilitation nursing. First second expiratory volume (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) were used to evaluate pulmonary function at 1 day before surgery and 3 days after surgery, and the 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) was used to evaluate physical activity. The incidence of pulmonary complications, length of hospital stay and retention time of closed chest drainage tube were collected through the hospital's electronic medical records system. The intervention effects between the two groups were compared using variance analysis of repeated-measures analysis of variance and log-rank test.
Results:The mean age of the control group was (60.77±9.31) years, with 28 males and 32 females. There were 4 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, 55 cases of adenocarcinoma, and 1 case of small cell carcinoma. The tumors were located in the right lobe in 41 cases. The mean age of the intervention group was (58.71±10.01) years, with 23 males and 36 females. There were 2 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, 56 cases of adenocarcinoma, and 1 case of small cell carcinoma. The tumors were located in the right lobe in 37 cases. There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, education level, pathological type, and tumor location between the two groups (all P>0.05). Three days after surgery, there was an interaction effect between the group and the time in FEV1, FVC, and 6MWD between the two groups. The FEV1 and 6MWD in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group (both P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in FVC between the groups (P>0.05). There were 3 cases of postoperative complications in the control group, and no cases in the intervention group. Log-rank test showed that the length of hospital stay and retention time of closed chest drainage tube after surgery in the intervention group were shorter than those in the control group (both P<0.05).
Conclusion:The problem-oriented respiratory rehabilitation nursing can improve the lung function and activity ability of patients with lung cancer after surgery, shorten the length of hospital stay and retention time of closed chest drainage tube, and improve the quality of life.
