Effects of holistic nursing on protection and control of nasopharyngeal carcinomapatient' oral mucosa damage during radiotherapy

  • Objective To explore if the overall care can effectly control nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients' oral mucosa damage during radiotherapy.
    Method Forty-seven nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients were randomly divided into test group(24 cases) and control group(23 cases). Patients in test group received mental nursing, oral care and health guidance plus the routine nursing, and patients in control group just given routine nursing.
    Result The damaged degree of oralmucosal was lighter in test group than that in control group, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=5.181 and 4.449, both P < 0.05).
    Conclusion The damage of oral mucosa can controlled effectively by holistic nursing during radiotherapy.
