Abstract:
Objective To investigate the current status of frailty in lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy and analyze its influencing factors.Methods The convenience sampling method was used to select 241 lung cancer patients admitted to the radiation therapy department of a tertiary Grade A tumor specialty hospital in Yunnan Province from January to December 2023.A questionnaire survey was conducted using the General Information Survey Questionnaire,Fried Weakness Scale,Anderson Symptom Assessment Scale(MDASI),Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(SDS),Nutrition Risk Screening 2002,and Barthel Index Scale.Results The frailty in lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy was 55.19%,with a total frailty score of 3.00(1.00,4.00)points.The results of logistic regression analysis showed that age,number of radiotherapy sessions,hemoglobin count,Barthel index,Anderson symptom assessment score,and anxiety score were the influencing factors of frailty in lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy(P<0.05).Conclusion The incidence of frailties in patients with lung cancer radiotherapy is high.Age,radiotherapy frequency,hemoglobin count,Barthel index,Anderson symptom rating and anxiety score are the factors affecting frailties in patients with lung cancer radiotherapy.Clinical medical staff should promptly evaluate the frailty of lung cancer radiotherapy patients and identify their risk factors,and actively take intervention measures to prevent or control the occurrence and development of frailty.
