Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of eye movement training on sleep quality of patients with advanced lung cancer based on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Methods 120 advanced lung cancer patients admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as the research object and divided into group A (PSQI scores ≥ 10 points, n = 60) and group B (PSQI < 10 points, n = 60). Routine nursing was performed to both groups, and patients in group A received the eye movement training additionally, so as to compare their PSQI scores, negative emotion scores, adverse reaction rate (ARR), Cancer Coping Modes Questionnaire (CCMQ) scores, and pain scores. Results After training, group A obtained significantly better sleep quality (P < 0.05), lower negative emotion scores (P < 0.001), lower ARR (P < 0.05), better CCMQ scores (P < 0.05), and lower pain scores (P < 0.001) than group B. Conclusion Eye movement training should be promoted in practice because it can reduce negative emotions, alleviate pain sensation, improve sleep quality and body condition, and lower the ARR for advanced lung cancer patients.

Highlights

  • Lung cancer is a common clinical condition. e latest annual report from the National Cancer Registry in 2018 showed that lung cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence (11.6%) and mortality (18.4%) globally [1].e causing factors include the environment, pulmonary history, and gene

  • To explore the effect of eye movement training on the sleep quality of advanced lung cancer patients based on Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), 120 patients with advanced lung cancer admitted to Journal of Healthcare Engineering our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as the research object for the study, with the results summarized as follows

  • Reports indicated that there are more than 2 million new lung cancer patients every year with poor prognosis. e academia has gradually recognized that the purpose of treating cancer is limited to resection of tumors and to improve the life health of patients and their quality of life
