What are the nursing measures for ovarian cancer chemotherapy

Ovarian cancer is one of the most common tumors of the female reproductive organs, and its incidence rate ranks third after cervical cancer and uterine body cancer. However, deaths from ovarian cancer account for the first place among all types of gynecological tumors, posing a serious threat to women's lives. So what are the nursing measures for ovarian cancer chemotherapy? Let's take a closer look at this issue.

1. To establish a good nurse-patient relationship, you should actively approach the patient, be attentive, patient, and caring. Correctly answer the patient's questions and explain more successful chemotherapy cases. Comfort the patient with sincere and kind words, perform nursing operations gently, meticulously, accurately, and in an orderly manner to make the patient feel safe, and use your skilled techniques to gain the patient's trust to eliminate the patient's fear.

Second, we should have a high degree of sympathy and responsibility for patients, feel the pain of patients, think about what patients think, and communicate with patients in their hearts. In addition to being the main supporters, nursing staff should also actively encourage their family members, relatives, friends, colleagues, and leaders to comfort and care for them frequently, help and take care of them in life, so that patients can feel the love from all sides and the value of their existence, inspire confidence in life, eliminate loneliness, and build confidence in overcoming the disease.

3. Chemotherapy drugs have a great impact on the body. Nursing staff should introduce the drugs used and possible toxic and side effects and the countermeasures to patients before taking the drugs. If chemotherapy causes nausea and other symptoms, antiemetics can be given before and after chemotherapy; such as Dikang Lishu and Lifuding, which protect the gastric mucosa and reduce the side effects of chemotherapy. To make patients feel safe, patients with mild reactions after taking the drugs can be arranged to receive spiritual and moral support to increase their confidence in recovery. Patients are advised to use appropriate makeup and grooming to improve their self-confidence and maintain their self-esteem.

Fourth, use examples of similar patients who are currently having a successful work and life to share their own experiences, so that patients feel that they are still useful people, and encourage patients to build up confidence in overcoming the disease and meet the challenges of a new life.

5. Patiently explain the necessity of chemotherapy to patients and their families, discuss and introduce chemotherapy plans with patients, and promptly inform patients of relevant information during treatment, such as the effect of treatment, the cause of the disease, etc., so that they can actively cooperate with the treatment and enhance their confidence in treatment. Give clear, effective and positive answers to the questions raised by patients to eliminate their concerns, explain the possible adverse effects of anxiety on physical and mental health, and encourage patients to do some activities to adjust their emotions, such as reading books and newspapers, watching TV, listening to music, taking a walk, playing chess, etc.
