RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of acupointhot compress with warming moxibustion bag on treating radiation proctitis caused by radiotherapy in cervical cancer. Methods 78 patients of cervical cancer with acute radioactive proctitis caused by radiotherapy were divided into two groups according to the length of hospital stays. The experiment group was given compress Tianshu acupoint with warm moxibustion bag every day, along with drug and retention enema, while the control group was treated with drug and retention enema only. Then observe and evaluate the effect of different treatment on each group. Results The total effective rate of treating radiation proctitis in experimental group was 94.44%(34/36) which was superior to 76.19% (32/42) of the control group (χ2=4.962, P<0.05). The influence of tumor radiotherapy in experimental group was also superior to the control group, nine patients were forced to suspend to radiotherapy by (6.11 ± 1.96) days in the control group, while five cases were suspended to radiotherapy by (2.20±1.09) days in the experiment group (t=4.066,P<0.05). Conclusions Acupoint hot compress with warming moxibustion bag combine with retention enema have an advantage over retention enema only on radiation proctitis caused by radiotherapy in cervical cancer.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the key points of graded nursing care to rectal cancer patients with radioactive proctitis induced by preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.Methods The clinical data of 162 rectal cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy were analyzed retrospectively. The experience of grading nursing care for patients with radioactive proctitis induced by neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy was summarized.Results Of 162 patients,radioactive proctitis occurred in 110 patients(67.9%).Among the 110 patients with proctitis,62(38.3%)were grade I radioactive proctitis,29(17.9%)gradeⅡand 19(11.7%)gradeⅢ.The graded nursing was done to the patients with radioactive proctitis and achieved good effect.Conclusions Radioactive proctitis has a high incidence in rectal cancer patients with preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and graded nursing care can reduce the distress of patients with radioactive proctitis effectively and promote wound healing,thus to improve their quality of life.
