Abstract:
Objective:To understand the medical experience of patients with early lung cancer in pre-hospitalization, find out the problems and shortcomings in the service process, and provide the basis for improving the quality of medical service under the pre-hospitalization mode.Methods:Through phenomenological research method, 21 pre-hospitalized patients with early lung cancer from September to October 2020 in the First Hospital Affiliated to Guangzhou Medical University were selected by purpose sampling method for semi-structured interviews, and the research data were analyzed by Colaizzi seven-step method.Results:There were four themes in the medical experience of early lung cancer pre-hospitalized patients: the turnover rate of beds was fast, the length of stay and cost of stay were reduced, the inclusion criteria of pre-hospitalization lacked the humanization, admission and examination procedures needed to be optimized and insufficient doctor-patient communication during pre-hospitalization.Conclusions:The implementation of pre-hospitalization mode can make patients′ medical treatment more convenient and efficient, and reduce hospitalization expenses. However, there are still some shortcomings in the management of pre-hospitalization of early lung cancer patients. The pre-hospitalization process should be further standardized, and the communication and management of pre-hospitalization patients during waiting period for out-of-hospital examination should be strengthened.
