Nursing methods for advanced pancreatic cancer

For a disease like pancreatic cancer, especially in the late stage, patients are under too much pressure. Some patients take a lot of sleeping pills. I believe they have had enough of the feeling that life is worse than death. We should be more open-minded about everything. When we have something to rely on, life will be more meaningful. Below we will explain in detail the care methods for pancreatic cancer patients.

(1) The psychological care method for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer is to establish a good nurse-patient relationship, patiently guide and encourage patients to build confidence.

(2) After the chemotherapy regimen is decided, the head nurse will patiently and carefully educate the patient and his family on the duration of the chemotherapy, dietary precautions during chemotherapy, the importance of chemotherapy, related knowledge, efficacy, toxic side effects and countermeasures. This will allow the patient to be mentally prepared and understand emergency response methods, and eliminate the patient's anxiety and fear caused by lack of knowledge.

(3) Psychological care methods for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer should encourage communication between patients.

(4) Helping patients gain support from their families and society, increasing their confidence in overcoming the disease, and alleviating their psychological barriers is also a psychological care method for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.

(5) Ask the patient whether he has a history of drug allergy and heart or lung disease, and check the blood drug concentration and dosage under cardiac function test; 1 day before chemotherapy, the patient's blood picture should be monitored and liver and kidney function should be checked. Through correct and scientific education and nursing, this group of patients and their families can understand and actively cooperate, and chemotherapy is carried out as scheduled.

(6) Avoid overeating, binge drinking, and high-fat diets. The pancreas is one of the main organs that secretes digestive enzymes, especially lipase, which is mainly secreted by the pancreas. Once the pancreas becomes diseased, the digestion of fat will be seriously affected.

(7) The diet of pancreatic cancer patients should first be nutritious, easy to digest, less irritating, and low in fat. They can be given high-protein, high-carbohydrate foods such as milk, fish, liver, egg white, refined flour products, lotus root powder, fruit juice, vegetable soup, and glutinous rice.

(8) Some Chinese medicine can be taken to improve the patient's appetite. Currently, many patients choose ginsenoside RH2 because it can improve appetite, sleep and other quality of life issues, and can also control and alleviate the disease. Of course, while taking this medicine, you should also take some easily digestible food and fresh vegetables. Patients can also drink some hawthorn soup or mung bean soup without residue to regulate their appetite.
