Core Tip
Core Tip: Multidimensional nursing based on the Nursing Outcomes Classification System significantly improves self-efficacy and symptom management in patients with low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) after sphincter-preserving surgery for rectal cancer. By integrating structured education, pelvic floor rehabilitation, and psychological interventions, this approach reduced LARS scores by 40%, enhanced quality of life, and achieved 95% patient satisfaction. Its innovation lies in bridging physiological recovery with psychological resilience through standardized outcome metrics.
