Abstract
Background: We aimed to investigate the impact of multidisciplinary educational team-based clinical nursing pathway on the psychological resilience, treatment adherence, pain management and quality of life in cancer patients. Methods: From 2019 to 2020, eighty two cancer patients were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observational group. Both groups were treated with routine oncology nursing and the multidisciplinary educational team-based clinical nursing pathway, respectively. Psychological resilience, pain management and qualify of life were assessed by the Chinese version of the Connor-Davidson resilience scale, revised American Pain Society Patient Outcome Questionnaire and the Nottingham health profile, respectively. Treatment adherence was semi-quantitatively classified as “good”, ”fair” and “bad”. Results: Patient’s psychological resilience, compliance, pain outcome and quality of life were similar between the control group and the observational group on admission. Patient’s psychological resilience, compliance and pain outcome in the observational group were significantly superior to those in the control group one day prior to discharge and 2 months post-discharge (all P<0.05). The scores of energy, emotions, sleep and mobility were significantly different between the observational group and the control group one day prior to discharge and 2 months post-discharge (all P<0.05). Significant improvements were observed with regard to the scores of energy, sleep and mobility in the control group 2 months post-discharge, whereas the scores of energy, emotions, sleep and mobility improved dramatically in the observational group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Compared with routine oncology nursing, multidisciplinary educational team-based clinical nursing pathway could improve patient’s psychological resilience, treatment adherence, pain management and quality of life.
