Respiratory Exercise Solutions in Precision Radiation Therapy for Lung Cancer

Abstract

Objective: To study the intervention effect of incorporating respiratory motion solutions in precision radiotherapy for lung cancer. Methods: In the survey sample collected by the enterprise from 2022 to 2023, we selected 60 patients for sample study. They were randomly divided into two groups. Both groups received precision radiotherapy. The control group (n=30) received health education to help patients understand the importance of cervical radiotherapy for lung cancer. The observation group (n=30) received resistance respiratory training and lung function training. The lung function indicators, Piper fatigue scale, cancer-related quality of life score, and symptom score were compared before and after intervention in both groups. Results: Before intervention, there were no significant differences in lung function indicators, Piper fatigue scale, cancer-related quality of life score between the two groups (P>0.05). After intervention, the lung function indicators, Piper fatigue scale, and cancer-related quality of life score were significantly better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). The observation group also had a lower symptom score than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Incorporating resistance respiratory training and lung function training during precision radiotherapy for lung cancer can improve respiratory motion, enhance treatment effectiveness, and improve lung function. These findings are worth promoting.
