Abstract

Objective to investigate the effect of comprehensive nursing intervention on thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) suppression for patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) in the Department of Nuclear Medicine. Methods From January 2016 to December 2016, a total of 90 patients with DTC, receiving 131I treatment in the Department of Nuclear Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University are enrolled in this study. All patients have received TSH suppression treatment for at least 3 months prior to admission, and are given individual-based comprehensive nursing intervention on TSH suppression after admission. Through questionnaire and telephone follow-up, patients’ awareness of TSH suppression and their medication compliance before and after nursing intervention are analyzed and compared. Results The awareness of the knowledge of TSH suppression and medication compliance are significantly improved in 90 patients after comprehensive nursing intervention (P<0.05). Conclusions Individual-based comprehensive nursing intervention can effectively improve awareness of the knowledge of TSH suppression, medication compliance and confidence in cure in patients with DTC, which helps promote the harmonious relationship between nurses and patients and improve the prognosis of patients. The comprehensive nursing intervention is worthy of clinical application.
