Abstract:

Objective: To analyze the effect of combining positive assimilation nursing with MDT-ERAS chain nursing on patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection for lung cancer. Methods: Eighty patients with lung cancer who underwent single-port thoracoscopic lobectomy at Putian University Affiliated Hospital from January to December 2024 were selected as the observation sample. The patients were randomly assigned to two groups by a coin toss. The control group (40 patients) received MDT-ERAS chain nursing, while the study group (40 patients) received MDT-ERAS chain nursing combined with positive assimilation nursing. After the intervention, the two groups’ HHI scores, rapid recovery compliance rates, rehabilitation indices, and postoperative pulmonary complication rates were compared. Results: The HHI scores in the study group were (12.60±1.13) points, (12.53±0.99) points, and (12.58±1.24) points, respectively, significantly higher than the corresponding scores in the control group ((9.25±1.13) points, (9.18±1.34) points, (10.35±0.86) points, respectively). These differences were statistically significant (t=13.291, 12.747, 9.322; P<0.05). The rapid recovery compliance rate was 97.50% (39/40) in the study group, which was higher than 80.00% (32/40) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=6.135, P=0.013). The time to first ambulation, duration of chest drainage tube placement, total hospital stay, and postoperative pain score in the study group were (6.13±1.32) hours, (22.60±1.50) hours, (12.48±1.54) days, and (2.83±1.13) points, respectively. These values were lower than those in the control group ((11.25±1.19) hours, (27.38±2.07) hours, (18.35±2.09) days, (4.33±1.12) points, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant (t=-18.187, -11.811, -14.306, -5.968, P<0.05). The postoperative pulmonary complication rate was 5.00% (2/40) in the study group and 22.50% (9/40) in the control group, with no statistically significant difference (χ2=3.794, P>0.05). Conclusion: Combining positive assimilation nursing with MDT-ERAS chain nursing in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery improves patients’ hope level and rapid recovery compliance, which helps achieve the goal of safe and rapid recovery.
