Incentive Nursing can Effectively Improve the ESCA Level of Patients with Endometrial Cancer after Laparoscopic Hysterectomy.

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the effect of incentive nursing on the rehabilitation of patients with endometrial cancer after laparoscopic hysterectomy.

METHODS

A total of 110 patients with endometrial cancer receiving laparoscopic hysterectomy in our hospital from October 2017 to July 2020 were recruited and assigned at a ratio of 1 : 1 to receive either routine nursing (control group) or incentive nursing plus routine care (study group). Outcome measures included the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) score, Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) score, the exercise of self-care agency (ESCA) score, postoperative rehabilitation outcomes, the incidence of nursing complications, and nursing satisfaction.

RESULTS

Patients receiving incentive nursing showed significantly lower SAS scores and HAMD scores, and a higher ESCA score versus patients given routine care alone ( < 0.05). Incentive care resulted in a shorter length of hospital stay and postoperative time of out-of-bed activities and exercises versus routine care ( < 0.05). Incentive care was associated with a significantly lower incidence of nursing complications and higher nursing satisfaction versus routine nursing ( < 0.05).

CONCLUSION

Incentive nursing can effectively improve the ESCA level of patients, promote postoperative recovery, and reduce the incidence of complications, so it is worthy of clinical promotion.
