OBJECTIVE: To explore the improvement effect of rehabilitation nursing based on information-knowledge-belief-behavior (IKAP) theory on urinary incontinence patients after radical prostatectomy. METHODS Sixty-six patients with urinary incontinence who received robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from January 2021 to January 2023 were selected and divided into control group (n=33) and observation group (n=33) according to random number table method. The patients in the control group were treated with rehabilitation nursing. The patients in the observation group were treated with rehabilitation nursing guided by IKAP theory. The recovery of urinary incontinence, duration of urinary incontinence, subjective well-being, quality of life, psychological and emotional indexes of patients in the two groups were compared. Results： The total effective rate of urinary incontinence recovery in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (90.91% vs 60.61%，P<0.05). The duration of urinary incontinence in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (［3.36±1.54］d vs ［4.15±1.36］d，P<0.05). And the subjective well-being score in observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (［19.36±2.69］points vs ［11.65±2.65］points， P<0.05). There was no significant difference in preoperative physical function, social function，and mental health scores between the two groups (P>0.05). And all scores in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group after surgery (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the preoperative SAS and SDS scores between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). And the scores of SAS and SDS in observation group were lower than those of the control group after the operation (P<0.05). Conclusion： Rehabilitation nursing based on IKAP theory can significantly improve urinary incontinence in patients with prostate cancer after surgery, which promotes the recovery of urinary incontinence, shortens the time of urinary incontinence, and improves the subjective well-being and quality of life, as well as reduces the negative impact of negative emotions. Therefore, it can be widely promoted and implemented in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the impact of the integrated nursing intervention on the sexual function, mental health and life quality of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. METHOD: One hundred and twenty-eight patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy at Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from May 2023 to May 2024 were included and randomly divided into control group and observation group using the method of random number table, with 64 cases in each group. The patients in control group received routine nursing care. And the integrated nursing was performed in the observation group. Perioperative indicators, scores of pre- and post-nursing sexual function assessment scale(assessed by IIEF-5), mental health scores (assessed by Medical Coping Questionnaire ［MCMQ］ and Hamilton Anxiety Scale ［HAMA］), and quality of life scores ( assessed by Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 ［GQOLI-74］ for benign prostatic hyperplasia) between two groups of patients were compared. RESULT: The time of operation and length of stay in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Before the intervention of nursing, there was no statistically significant difference in IIEF-5, MCMQ, HAMA, and GQOLI-74 score between the two groups (P>0.05). After nursing, the IIEF5 score of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group. The scores of MCMQ, HAMA, and GQOLI-74 were significantly improved compared to the patients in control group (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION The application of integrated nursing is conducive to sexual function, coping strategies, quality of life and prognosis of the patients received robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to analyze the influence factors of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients receiving radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer, and to explore effective nursing strategy in order to provide a theoretical basis for improving the postoperative quality of life of patients. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on 103 elderly male patients who underwent radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer in the Department of Urology at General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from August 2022 to August 2024. The patients were categorized into two groups based on whether LUTS occurred. Demographic and clinical characteristics, perioperative parameters, follow-up data, and participation in pelvic floor muscle training were analyzed to identify risk factors associated with postoperative LUTS. RESULTS: The incidence of postoperative LUTS in the patients with LUTS before the operation was significantly higher than that in the patients without LUTS before the operation (68.42% vs 32.61%, P=0.001). Additionally, the use of larger catheters (22F) was closely associated with an increased incidence of postoperative LUTS(P<0.01). Pelvic floor exercises demonstrated a significant protective effect, with patients who engaged in pelvic floor exercises exhibiting a lower incidence of postoperative LUTS (38.60% vs 60.87%, P=0.040). Regression analysis further revealed that pelvic floor exercises was the protective factor for postoperative LUTS (OR=0.215, 95%CI: 0.091－0.508, P<0.01). CONCLUSION Preoperative LUTS and catheter size are significant risk factors for the occurrence of postoperative LUTS following radical prostatectomy. Pelvic floor muscle exercise after surgery has a protective effect. Postoperative personalized nursing interventions are necessary for different patients to achieve optimal recovery outcomes.

Multimodal precision nursing intervention enhances cognitive function and quality of life through multisensory collaborative stimulation by integrating multidimensional data of patients. As one of the most common complications after radical prostatectomy, urinary incontinence seriously affects the quality of life of prostate cancer patients after surgery which has a negative impact on multidimensional health in the "physiological-psychological-social" aspects. This paper summarizes the clinical manifestations, influencing factors, and nursing interventions of urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy, and focuses on the key points of nursing based on multimodal theory, in order to provide nursing strategies for improving urinary incontinence after prostate cancer surgery.
