To compare adverse events and health-related quality of life in ambulatory home-based chemotherapy with those in inpatient.
Prospective non-randomized observational study.
Participants were divided into two groups according to patients' preference receiving chemotherapy.
Sixty-four participants were enrolled in the inpatient, and 111 were in an ambulatory home-based chemotherapy. The frequency of anaemia, neutropenia and thrombocytopenia was significantly higher in inpatient group than in ambulatory home-based chemotherapy group (p < .001, <.001 and .002, respectively). Nausea, mucositis, and fatigue were more common in ambulatory home-based chemotherapy group than in inpatient group (p < .001, .022, and .005, respectively). Patients in the ambulatory home-based chemotherapy group showed higher social well-being (SWB) scores than inpatient group (coefficient 1.92, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.65 to 3.19, p .003).
比较门诊家庭化疗与住院化疗的不良事件和健康相关生活质量。
前瞻性非随机观察性研究。
根据患者的偏好,将参与者分为两组接受化疗。
64 名参与者被纳入住院组,111 名参与者被纳入门诊家庭化疗组。住院组贫血、中性粒细胞减少和血小板减少的发生率明显高于门诊家庭化疗组(p<0.001、<.001 和<.002,分别)。恶心、黏膜炎和疲劳在门诊家庭化疗组比住院组更常见(p<0.001、<.022 和<.005,分别)。门诊家庭化疗组的患者比住院组的患者具有更高的社会福利(SWB)评分(系数 1.92,95%置信区间 [CI] 0.65 至 3.19,p<.003)。
