ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the application value of the self-management manual combined with the case management model in postoperative management of nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.METHODS:
Eighty-four patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma admitted to Yingtan People's Hospital from May 2020 to April 2022 were retrospectively included in this study. They were divided into the experimental group (receiving self-management manual combined with case management mode scheme, n=42) and the control group (receiving continuous management after conventional nasopharyngeal carcinoma radiotherapy, n=42) according to mode differences. The cancer-related fatigue [Cancer Fatigue Scale (CFS)], comfort status [General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ)], self-management efficacy [Chinese Strategies Used by People to Promote Health (C-SUPPH)], self-care ability (self-care ability measurement), pain score [Visual analogue scale (VAS)], and quality of life [European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)] were compared between the two groups after 4 weeks of radiotherapy. The adverse reactions of the two groups were recorded. Combined with periodic review and follow-up records, the prognostic factors of the two groups of patients were analyzed.RESULTS:
After treatment, the scores of physical fatigue (12.83±1.10), emotional fatigue (9.78±1.32), cognitive fatigue (5.62±1.31), and total score of CFS (28.24±2.26) in the experimental group were 12.83±1.10. The control group physical fatigue (13.90±1.25) points, emotional fatigue (10.55±1.40) points, cognitive fatigue (6.80±1.75) points, and total CFS (31.33±2.59) points in both groups were lower than before treatment. The experimental group was lower than the control group (ALL P<0.05). The physiological, psychological, spiritual, socio-cultural, and environmental scores of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The scores of health knowledge, self-care skills, self-care responsibility, and self-concept score of patients in the experimental group were higher than the control group (all P<0.05). After intervention, the VAS score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). After intervention, the EORTC QLQ-C30 score of both groups increased significantly as compared with pre-intervention. The score in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(80.05±10.72) vs (68.11±12.10), P<0.05]. Postoperative (various) adverse reactions in the experimental group were lower than the control group (all P<0.05). The factors influencing the prognosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients were age, tumor stage, and intervention mode by Cox model analysis (all P<0.05).CONCLUSION:
The self-management manual combined with the case management mode can alleviate cancer fatigue, improve postoperative self-management ability, self-care ability, and quality of life of patients with nasopharyngeal cancer radiotherapy, reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions and improve the prognosis of patients. It is worth promoting in clinical settings.
