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: To analyze the effects of the Focused Solution Model Nursing intervention on quality of life, negative emotions of the patients with prostate cancer. Methods： A total of 82 prostate cancer patients who were diagnosed and treated at the General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command between September 2022 and September 2024 were included and randomly divided into study group and control group by the method of random number table, with 41 patients in each group. The patients in the study group were treated with Focused Solution Model Nursing intervention. And the routine care was used in the control group The quality of life and negative emotions were compared between the two groups by using the scales of World Health Organization Quality of Life-Brief (WHOQOL-BREF), HAMA and HAMD. RESULTS: Compared to the control group, the patients in the study group exhibited significantly higher scores in the physiological, psychological, environmental, and social relationship domains of the WHOQOL-BREF scale (P<0.05). The scores of HAMA and HAMD in study group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). Additionally, all subscales of the Social Impact Scale including social exclusion, internalized shame, social isolation and economic discrimination were significantly lower than those of the study group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Focused Solution Model Nursing intervention can effectively improve the quality of life and negative emotions of the prostate cancer patients in the clinical treatment.

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.

Objective: To investigate the nursing care of prostate cancer (PCa) patients againstradioactive proctitisinduced byCyberKnifetreatment. METHODS: Sixty-eightPCapatients undergoingCyberKnife treatment in the observation group receivedspecialnursing care againstradioactive proctitis. The nursing measures includedthoserelevant toCyberKnife treatment, prevention ofradioactive proctitis, skin care, and discharge guidance. Meanwhile, another 54 prostate cancer patients received traditional nursing care as controls. We compared the incidence rate and severity of radioactive proctitis between the two groups of patients. RESULTS: The incidence rate of radioactive proctitiswas markedly lower in the observation group than in the control (2.9% vs 13.0%, P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference was observed in the severity of radioactive proctitis between the two groups of patients. CONCLUSIONS The special nursing care againstCyberKnife-induced radioactiveproctitiscan significantlyreduce the incidence of radioactive proctitis andimprove the effect of CyberKnife treatment of prostate cancer, which therefore deserves wide clinical application.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify relationship of urinary symptom, urinary discomfort and quality of life among the bladder cancer patients and benign prostate hypertrophy patients, and to contribute health promotion of such patients and nursing intervention development based on this results. METHOD: Study sample recruited bladder cancer patents(n=49) and benign prostate hypertrophy patients who admitted Seoul National University Hospital from June, 2002 to June, 2003. Both group patients were operated, and prostate hypertrophy patients group (mean 67.8 years old) were older than bladder cancer patients group(60.82 years old). Instruments was composed of general characteristics, urinary symptom scale(19 items), urinary discomfort scale(19 items) and quality of life scale(21 items). Data was analysed SPSS PC + 10 using mean, standard deviation, pearson correlation coefficient. Result as follows: 1. There was a statistically significant difference in occupation between two groups (p=.027). Hypertrophy patients group's age was more older than bladder cancer patients group. 2. The prostate hypertrophy patients group had the significantly higher score in urinary symptom (p=000) and nighttime urination frequency. However, there was no significant difference in incontinence symptoms and the symptoms associated bladder cancer between two groups. 3. The prostate hypertrophy patients group had significantly higher score in urinary discomfort (p=000) than the bladder cancer patients group. However, there was no significant difference incontinence discomfort and the discomfort associated bladder cancer between two groups. 4. The prostate hypertrophy patients group suffered more urinary discomfort than the bladder cancer patients group did. The quality of life the prostate hypertrophy patients group was lower than the quality of life the bladder cancer patients group. Quality of life was no statistically significant difference between two groups (p=000). 5. There was a positive correlation between urinary symptoms and urinary discomfort. However, there was a negative correlation between the quality of life and urination symptoms and discomfort. Conclusions: The prostate hypertrophy patients group had significantly higher score in urinary symptom and urinary discomfort (p=000) than the bladder cancer patients group. The quality of life the prostate hypertrophy patients group was lower than the quality of life the bladder cancer patients group. This means that urinary symptom and urinary discomfort in prostate hypertrophy patient group is more important problem. So, prostate hypertrophy patient group need to control the symptom. Therefore, nurses will be provide the intervention program to improve the bladder function after prostate hypertrophy surgery.
