Patients with advanced liver cancer must pay attention to their diet structure and dietary regimen, which is the most important point for the physical recovery of patients in the late stage. On the other hand, psychological guidance for patients with advanced liver cancer also plays a vital role.

Nursing of advanced liver cancer

1. Suspicion: Once a patient learns that he has cancer, he will be restless, seek confirmation from many sources, feel nervous, and be suspicious. Therefore, medical staff should be cautious in their words and deeds, find out the purpose of the patient's inquiry, answer the patient's questions scientifically and tactfully, and avoid speaking directly to reduce the patient's degree of shock, so as to prevent the patient from losing confidence in treatment.

2. Fear: Patients know that they have cancer and often show fear, despair, loss of hope for life, and worry about their loved ones. Nurses should sympathize with patients, give comfort, and encourage patients to actively accept treatment to avoid delaying the disease. They should also emphasize the role of psychology in the disease and encourage patients to accept treatment with a positive attitude.

3. Pessimistic psychology: When patients are diagnosed with cancer, they will feel pessimistic and disappointed, which is manifested as more disappointment than expectation, depression, and unhappiness. At this time, nurses should show care, explain that the disease is being treated, and emphasize that a good mood is conducive to the prognosis of the disease.

4. Acceptance psychology: After a period of time, the patient begins to accept the fact that he has the disease, his mind becomes clear and stable, he is willing to accept treatment, and he places hope on treatment. Nurses should apply "suggestion" therapy in time, publicize the significance of treatment, and eliminate unfavorable factors to treatment, such as social factors, family factors, etc.

5. Disappointment or optimism: Because everyone's physique and degree of adaptation are different, the treatment effect is also different. Some patients have their condition under control, are good at adjusting their minds, and live in a harmonious emotional environment. Patients are in an optimistic state for a long time. Some gradually deteriorate, have a large response to treatment, a heavy economic burden, are physically exhausted, and are mentally depressed, waiting for death passively. Nurses should analyze the reasons for negative patients, provide psychological comfort, adjust the patient's mentality in time, and provide life guidance; for optimistic patients, they should provide rehabilitation guidance and pay attention to psychological changes so as to find problems and solve them in time. In addition, nurses must also have skilled nursing skills and good psychological qualities to make patients feel psychologically satisfied and happy.

6. Nurses should be compassionate, calm, enthusiastic, patient and decisive, have keen observation, treat patients of different ages, personalities and status equally, be fair and just, gain the trust of patients, establish a good nurse-patient relationship, be good at understanding patients' mistakes, not contradict patients, and be magnanimous. In terms of speech, nurses should be kind and patient, caring and considerate, and have a gentle tone. During the conversation, they should listen carefully and not interrupt at will. They should also pay attention to observing the condition, understanding the patient's thoughts, and accepting reasonable suggestions. During the conversation, they should pay attention to protective language, and the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the patient should be rigorous and have a scientific basis. They must not be subjective and arbitrary, or make random guesses.
