Application and effect analysis of the specialized management of telephone follow-up in patients with tumor intermission of chemotherapy

Abstract

Objective To explore the application and effects of the specialized management of telephone follow-up in patients with tumor intermission of chemotherapy. Methods A total of 400 patients with tumor intermission of chemotherapy were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 200 cases in each group. Combined with the current general telephone follow-up and through the status of the investigation, content and process of specialized management of telephone follow-up in patients with tumor intermission of chemotherapy were designed and applied to the observation group. The control group did not implement the intervention except for the ordinary telephone follow-up. The two groups of patients were evaluated by self-designed questionnaire, the effect of follow-up and the satisfaction degree of the patients were evaluated. Results In the observation group(5 cases were lost to follow-up), the mental state steady, reasonable diet, moderate activity, understand medical medicine, law and adopt measures to prevent infection accounted for 73.85%(144/195), 74.36%(145/195), 67.69%(132/195), 80.51%(157/195)and 72.31%(141/195), 77.95%(152/195); while in the control group(8 cases were lost to follow-up), the proportion was 53.13%(102/192), 51.04%(98/192), 43.75%(84/192), 55.73%(107/192), 52.08%(100/192), 53.13%(102/192), χ2 values ranged from 16.84 to 27.41, P < 0.01. The satisfaction degree with follow-up time, health guidance and problem solutions during follow-up process of the observation group accounted for 67.69%(132/195), 69.23%(135/195), 86.15%(168/195), the proportion of the control group was 45.83%(88/192), 46.88%(90/192), 47.92%(92/192), χ2 values were 20.49, 49.01, 77.65(P < 0.01). Conclusions The specialized management of telephone follow-up will help to promote the treatment of patients with tumor intermission of chemotherapy of home care norms, improve the effect of follow-up and satisfaction.
