Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of narrative nursing intervention based on targeted nursing intervention on anxiety and nursing satisfaction of patients with malignant tumors undergoing chemotherapy. Methods 120 malignant tumor patients treated with chemotherapy in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as the research objects and randomly divided into group A and group B, with 60 cases in each group. The targeted nursing intervention was performed to group B, and the targeted nursing intervention centering on narrative nursing was performed to group A, so as to compare their distress thermometer (DT) scale scores, depression and anxiety scale scores, Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire (MCMQ) scores, Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) scores for quality of life, and nursing satisfaction. Results After nursing intervention, group A obtained 5.00 ± 1.20 points in the DT score, which were significantly lower than group B (P < 0.05); and group A achieved significantly lower depression and anxiety scale scores (P < 0.001), better MCMQ scores (P < 0.05), and higher FACT-G scores (P < 0.05) and nursing satisfaction (P < 0.05) than group B. Conclusion The targeted nursing intervention based primarily on narrative nursing can greatly reduce negative emotions, alleviate anxiety, and improve confidence in treatment and quality of life for malignant tumor patients undergoing chemotherapy, with higher nursing satisfaction, which should be promoted and applied in the practice.

Summary

Objective

To explore the effect of narrative nursing intervention based on targeted nursing intervention on anxiety and nursing satisfaction of patients with malignant tumors undergoing chemotherapy. E targeted nursing intervention based primarily on narrative nursing can greatly reduce negative emotions, alleviate anxiety, and improve confidence in treatment and quality of life for malignant tumor patients undergoing chemotherapy, with higher nursing satisfaction, which should be promoted and applied in the practice. Journal of Healthcare Engineering based on targeted nursing is more individually different, which can fundamentally solve the problems raised by the patients with different conditions and of different educational levels, comprehensively improve the psychological nursing effect, and enhance the application value It is still in the immature stage at present. To explore the effect of narrative nursing based on targeted nursing intervention on the anxiety and nursing satisfaction of malignant tumor patients undergoing chemotherapy, 120 such patients treated in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected for the study, with the results summarized as follows
