Abstract

Background: To explore the effect of high-quality nursing model based on hope theory in endometrial cancer patients. Methods: The patients (n = 120) with endometrial cancer who underwent surgical treatment in hospital from October 2017 to October 2019 were divided into the study group and control group using the random number table method. The patients received usual care in the control group, and received high-quality nursing based on hope theory in the study group. Then, the degree of pain, fatigue, anxiety and depression were evaluated using visual analogue scale (VAS), chronic pain self-efficacy scale (CPSS), cancer fatigue scale (RPFS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS). The hope level and coping style were assessed using Herth hope scale (HHI) and summary coping style questionnaire (SCSQ). The quality of life was assessed using Medical Outcomes Study item short from health survey (SF-36). Moreover, nursing satisfaction was compared using homemade questionnaire. Results: The results showed that VAS score, RPFS score, SDS score and passive coping score of SCSQ questionnaire in the study group were lower than those in the control group (p < 0.05). CPSS score, HHI score, positive coping score of SCSQ questionnaire, nursing satisfaction and SF-36 scores in all dimensions in the study group were higher than those in the control group (p < 0.05). Discussion: The high-quality nursing model based on hope theory could ameliorate patients’ pain and fatigue, enhance their self-efficacy, guide patients to face problems positively, improve their life quality and hope level. Conclusion: It has higher nursing satisfaction in endometrial cancer.

Highlights

  • Endometrial cancer is a malignant tumor that originates in the endometrial epithelium, accounting for about 20–30% of female reproductive tract malignancies [1]

  • The visual analogue scale (VAS) and RPFS scores in the study group were lower than those in the control group (p < 0.05), and chronic pain self-efficacy scale (CPSS) score in the study group was higher than that in the control group after intervention (p < 0.05)

  • The results of this study showed that the VAS score and RPFS score of the study group were lower than the control group, and the CPSS score was higher than the control group, indicating that the high-quality nursing model based on hope theory could significantly reduce the degree of pain and fatigue in endometrial cancer patients

Summary

Introduction

Endometrial cancer is a malignant tumor that originates in the endometrial epithelium, accounting for about 20–30% of female reproductive tract malignancies [1]. The high-quality nursing model based on hope theory can effectively improve the psychological activity and personality characteristics of patients, and promote their development to a positive state, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease. In view of the positive effect of hope theory on patients, this study selected patients with endometrial cancer admitted to our hospital and gave them hope nursing interventions, so as to minimize the physical and mental pain of patients and improve their quality of life. CPSS score, HHI score, positive coping score of SCSQ questionnaire, nursing satisfaction and SF-36 scores in all dimensions in the study group were higher than those in the control group (p < 0.05). Discussion: The high-quality nursing model based on hope theory could ameliorate patients' pain and fatigue, enhance their self-efficacy, guide patients to face problems positively, improve their life quality and hope level.
