Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of clinical nursing pathway based on patient demand on negative emotions, quality of life and complications in lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Methods 〓A total of 84 patients with lung cancer were divided into the control group(n=42)and the observation group(n=42)according to the order of admission. The control group was treated with routine nursing, and the observation group used patient-oriented clinical nursing pathway. The negative emotion by self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)and self-rating depression scale(SDS), quality of life by EORTC QLQ-C30, incidence of complications and nursing satisfaction rate were observed and compared between two groups. Results 〓The SAS scores and SDS scores of patients in the observation group were lower than those of controls 3 months after nursing treatment(P0.05). Patients in the observation group achieved a better outcomes of EORTC QLQ-C30 assessment compared with those in the control group(P0.05). Patients in the observation group had a lower incidence of complications an higher nursing satisfaction rate compared with those in the control group(P0.05). Conclusion 〓Patient-oriented clinical nursing pathways can effectively relieve the negative emotions, improve the quality of life and reduce the risk of complications in lung cancer patients during radiotherapy.
