Abstract:

Objective To explore the effect of incentive nursing on patients with rectal cancer surgery. Method 74 patients with rectal cancer who were treated in Jingzhou Gong'an County People's Hospital from December 2022 to December 2023 were selected and divided into the control group and the observation group by double color ball method, 37 cases in each group. The former received routine nursing, while the latter received incentive nursing. The self-care ability, psychological status, hope level, quality of life and satisfaction were compared. Result Before nursing, there was no significant difference in self-maintenance ability scale for adults(ESCA) score, self-rating anxiety scale(SAS) score, self-rating depression scale(SDS) score and hope level score between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05). After nursing, the ESCA score and hope level score of the two groups were improved compared with those before nursing (P ＜ 0.001), and the ESCA score and hope level score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, while the SAS score and SDS score of the observation group were lower than those of the control group, with significant differences (P ＜ 0.001); In terms of quality of life, the scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.001). The satisfaction of the observation group was 97.30%, which was higher than that of the reference group (83.78%), and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion The application of incentive nursing in patients who undergone surgery for rectal cancer has good effects. While improving their self-care ability, it can also promote the improvement of their subsequent quality of life.
