Application effect of preoperative chemoradiotherapy combined with rehabilitation nursing in patients with rectal cancer surgery

Abstract

ABSTRACT To study the effect of preoperative chemoradiotherapy combined with rehabilitation nursing in patients with rectal cancer surgery. 106 cases of rectal cancer patients in our hospital were selected. 53 cases in each group were treated with surgical treatment combined with rehabilitation nursing treatment and preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy combined with surgical treatment and rehabilitation nursing treatment in the study group. The T stage (ypT) and N stage (ypN) downgrading rates of serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA)19–9 were compared between the two groups after treatment. The 5-year cumulative survival rate, recurrence rate and the positive rate of Bax and antigen identified by monoclonal antibody Ki-67 (Ki-67) expression were detected. T stage downgrading rate and N stage downgrading rate were 77.36% (41/53) 35.85% (19/53) in control group and 94.34% (50/53) 64.15% (34/53) in research group, respectively. The CEA and CA19–9 levels measured at the end of surgery and one month after nursing in both groups were lower than those before treatment. After treatment, scores of quality of life indicators in both groups increased. The positive rates of Bax and Ki-67Ki-67 were significantly different between the two groups after treatment (P < 0.05). Preoperative chemoradiotherapy combined with rehabilitation nursing has obvious effect on patients with rectal cancer surgery, and has obvious advantages in inhibiting tumor growth, destroying tumor survival immune environment and reducing surgical complications, which can improve the prognosis and is worthy of clinical application. It could provide a potential treatment for patients with rectal cancer.
