Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of nursing intervention based on the chronic disease trajectory model in nutritional support for patients with gastric cancer. A total of 106 patients with gastric cancer hospitalized at our surgical oncology from January to October 2018 were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group, with 53 patients in each. The control group was treated with routine nursing methods, and the other group was given a new nursing method based on the chronic disease trajectory model. We collected the data of postoperative complications, the six-month nutritional status and the negative emotion scores from the two groups. At discharge and the first-, second-, third- and sixth-month follow-up, the measured values of albumin and prealbumin in the intervention group were significantly higher than the control group. At discharge and six months after follow-up, the SAS and SDS scores in the intervention group were lower than the control group. The nursing intervention based on the chronic disease trajectory model can improve the nutritional status and negative emotions of patients with gastric cancer and decrease the incidence of postoperative complications.
