Background. Cervical Carcinoma (CC) is the second most common cause of death in women, with most patients being diagnosed at an advanced stage. The conventional treatment for CC, with a long chemotherapy treatment cycle, is less than satisfactory and will cause serious damage to the patient’s blood vessels. Objective. To analyze the impact of the clinical nursing pathway (CNP) on the incidence of complications and adverse prognosis in patients undergoing chemotherapy for CC via peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC). Materials and Methods. This study enrolled 157 CC patients who underwent PICC chemotherapy in the Shaanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital between March 2017 and April 2020 and assigned them between the two groups according to different nursing interventions. Ninety-three patients treated with CNP intervention were included in the research group (RG), and sixty-four cases treated with the routine nursing intervention were included in the control group (CG). The self-care ability and intervention satisfaction of patients were assessed using the self-care ability scale and the intervention satisfaction questionnaire, respectively, both developed by our hospital. The complication rate was observed in both cohorts, and the adverse prognosis of patients was statistically analyzed. Finally, an assessment was made on the patients’ quality of life (QOL) using the quality of life questionnaire core 30 (QLQ-C30). Results. Higher scores of self-management information, catheter nursing ability, self-care compliance, and abnormal situation management were determined in RG after the nursing intervention. RG also outperformed CG in the overall incidence rates of complications and poor prognosis. Moreover, RG presented statistically higher nursing satisfaction and QLQ-C30 scores than CG after the nursing intervention. Conclusion. CNP has a significant nursing effect on patients with CC treated with PICC chemotherapy, which can not only reduce the incidence of postchemotherapy complications but also improve patient prognosis, satisfaction, and life quality, with the value for clinical promotion.
Objective. To determine the effectiveness of comprehensive nursing in the care of ovarian carcinoma (OC) patients treated with paclitaxel (PTX) plus nedaplatin (NDP). Methods. The research population comprised 180 advanced OC patients who received treatment in the Shaanxi Cancer Hospital between November 2018 and November 2021. The enrolled cases were assigned to two groups based on different nursing plans: an observation group (OG) with 100 cases treated with comprehensive nursing and a control group (CG) with 80 cases intervened by conventional nursing. Intergroup comparisons were performed to identify statistical significance in terms of the following parameters: serum NGF, TK1, and CA15-3 levels; VAS, SAS, and SDS scores; nursing compliance; incidence of adverse reactions; and nursing satisfaction. Results. Compared with CG, OG showed the following: (1) lower posttreatment NGF, TK1, and CA15-3 levels; (2) lower scores of SAS and SDS; (3) higher nursing compliance; and (4) lower incidence of adverse reactions and higher nursing satisfaction after nursing. Conclusions. Comprehensive nursing far outperformed conventional nursing in the care of advanced OC patients treated with PTX plus NDP, which is worth popularizing.
