ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS

Research background

Lung cancer is a malignant tumor arising from the pulmonary organs, bronchial mucosa or glands, and it is also the most common primary lung cancer. For many people, lung cancer is a fatal disease, but with the continuous progress of medical technology, the treatment methods and prognosis of lung cancer have also been greatly improved.

Research motivation

We also found that pulmonary rehabilitation training and psychological care have a positive impact on the treatment of lung cancer patients, which is worth further promotion and application.

Research objectives

This paper conducts a comprehensive analysis on the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation training combined with psychological care on postoperative respiratory function and psychological health of lung cancer patients.

Research methods

This study used the design of a randomized controlled trial to divide patients after lung cancer surgery meeting the inclusion criteria into two groups, control and experimental groups. The control group received conventional treatment and nursing care, while the experimental group received pulmonary rehabilitation training combined with psychological nursing care on the basis of the control group.

Research results

By comparing the respiratory function and mental health indicators of the observation group and the control group before and after the intervention, it was found that the respiratory function and mental health status of the patients in the experimental group were significantly improved.

Research conclusions

Pulmonary rehabilitation training combined with psychological nursing for patients after lung cancer resection can improve lung function, improve daily activities, effectively relieve anxiety, depression, and other negative emotions, and reduce the occurrence of complications.

Research perspectives

The importance of rehabilitation care.
