Methods For 186 MDS patients, we enhanced their paramedics′ risk awareness, implemented the responsibility system of holistic nursing care, combined the path-based health education and various ways of health education, combined the department′s quality control group and quality control cycle, and realized the new model of informationalized nursing. All hospitalized patients were evaluated by using the quality of life instruments for cancer patients (EROTC QLQ-C30) and the Self-rating Anxiety Scale on the day of admitting and discharging. Results The overall new admitted patients with MDS suffered lower quality of life score (48.87±25.64) than the national norm (51.16±24.61) score (t=-2.08, P<0.05), but it got higher score of anxious score(44.26±15.26) than the national norm (41.90±2.62) score (t=2.01, P<0.05). By the utilization of new nursing model, the patients′ quality of life improved to (52.64±15.25) score (t=-2.08, P<0.05), their economic difficulties improving to (58.94±25.51) score. Compared with the new admitted time, their anxious (42.57±12.38) score was alleviated (t=-1.98, P<0.05). Conclusions The new nursing model can improve quality of life and relieve anxiety in patients with MDS. Key words: Nursing; Myelodysplastic syndromes; Quality of life; Anxiety
