Abstract
Objective: Patients with breast cancer fatigue-related fatigue have significantly reduced sleep quality and quality of life. Continuous care combined with dietary care has been shown to improve sleep quality and quality of life in patients with malignant tumor. However, its effects on breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy have not been fully explored.
Methods: Eighty breast cancer patients with fatigue were treated in our hospital from April 2020 to June 2022 and randomly divided into a control group (n = 40) and an observation group (n = 40). The control group received routine nursing care, while the observation group received continuous nursing combined with dietary nursing. Sleep quality, quality of life, compliance behavior, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
Results: The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Scale scores of both groups were lower after intervention than before, and the observation group's Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was lower than that of the control group (p < 0.05). After intervention, Generic Quality Of Life Inventory-74 scores of both groups were higher than before intervention, and the observation group's score was higher than the control group (p < 0.05). The reasonable diet rate, treatment compliance rate, regular follow-up rate, and regular lifestyle in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (p < 0.05). The nursing satisfaction of the observation group was 95.00%, significantly higher than that of the control group (80.00%, p < 0.05).
Conclusion: Continuous nursing combined with dietary nursing can significantly improve sleep quality and quality of life, as well as improve compliance behaviors and nursing satisfaction of patients with breast cancer fatigue, indicating significant clinical value.
