Effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine nursing under the theory of symptom management on the treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with gynecological tumor

Objective To explore the effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine nursing under the theory of symptom management on the treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with gynecological tumor. Methods From March 2023 to March 2024, 60 patients with gynecological tumor undergoing chemotherapy were selected as the research objects, and they were randomly divided in to the study group (n=30) and control group (n=30). The control group received routine nursing, while xperimental group received auricular point sticking, acupressure and aromatherapy on the basis of routine nursing. The MASCC scale and The WHO quality of life assessment instrument (WHOQOL-Bref) were used to evaluate the patients after the first course chemotherapy (T1), the second course chemotherapy (T2), the third course chemotherapy (T3) and the fourth course chemotherapy (T4). Results After the intervention, there was a significant difference in the score of delayed nausea between the two groups(F=5. 408, P<0. 05), but there was no significant difference in the score of acute nausea(F=2. 467, P＞0. 05). In addition, here were statistically significant differences in the physical field, psychological field and environmental field of WHOQOL-BREF between the two groups(P<0. 05). Conclusion Traditional Chinese Medicine nursing is beneficial to reduce the severity of delayed nausea and vomiting and improve the quality of life of patients with gynecological cancer chemotherapy.
