Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the impact of nursing intervention combined with Care for Life in Science (CLS) biological treatment on the prognosis of patients with digestive system tumors.
METHODS: Eighty gastrointestinal cancer patients treated at Tianjin Fourth Central Hospital from January 2011 to December 2011 were randomly divided into either an intervention group or a conventional group. The conventional group received CLS biological treatment combined with routine care, while the intervention group underwent nursing intervention combined with CLS biological treatment. Clinical effects were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: The intervention group had significantly higher 2- and 3-year survival rates than the conventional group (85.7% vs 70.0%, 75.0% vs 60.0%, P < 0.05). Appetite, pain and disease awareness and activities of daily living were significantly better in the intervention group than in the conventional group (t = 5.017, 6.332, 8.407, 9.352, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: CLS biological treatment combined with care intervention is feasible and can improve the patient's prognosis.
