RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the application value and feasibility of humanistic health management in cancer screening in physical examination. METHODS: A total of 100 carcinoma patients were randomly grouped into the control group and the experimental group, with 50 cases in each group. The patients in the control group received a general physical examination, while those in the experimental group received humanistic health care management model, health education, environmental management, private nursing and emergency management. The two groups were compared in missing item rate, health knowledge score, physical examination quality, basic literacy of nursing staff, adverse events and physical examination satisfaction. RESULTS: There was 1 case of missing items in the ENT (ear nose throat branch) in the experimental group, with a missing item rate of 2.00%, and 7 cases of missing items in the control group, with a missing item rate of 14.00% (χ2=9.000, P=0.003). The score of mastering health knowledge in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group (t=15.663, P<0.001). Compared with the control group, the experimental group experienced shorter time of physical examination and obtained higher reliability and efficiency of physical examination (all P<0.05) and higher scores of professional ethics, interpersonal communication, coordination ability, humanistic quality and civility of nursing staff (all P<0.05). In addition, the incidence of adverse events in the control group was 32.00% (16/50), which was higher than that in the experimental group (18.00%, 9/50; χ2=3.920, P=0.048). There was no difference in satisfaction between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Humanistic health management can improve the efficiency of medical examination, the mastery of health knowledge and reduce the rate of missed examinations and adverse accidents, thus improving the overall satisfaction of patients.
