How should lung cancer patients do a good job of nursing? Lung cancer patients should pay attention to three nursing tasks

There are many lung cancer patients around us, so everyone must be familiar with the disease. However, many people are more concerned about whether lung cancer is contagious in the middle stage. Experts believe that it is not contagious. It is very important to do a good job of nursing. So how should lung cancer patients do a good job of nursing?

1. Diet care:

First of all, when lung cancer reaches the late stage, the patient's digestive system becomes very poor, and gastrointestinal symptoms such as anorexia, nausea, bloating, vomiting, etc. may occur. It is also more prone to complications such as malnutrition, hypoproteinemia, and low resistance. Therefore, patients with advanced lung cancer should strengthen their daily dietary care to improve their quality of life.

2. Basic care:

Secondly, more attention should be paid to the daily care of lung cancer. This is because patients with advanced lung cancer have weak constitutions, so basic nursing work should be strengthened. For example, patients who have been bedridden for a long time should be turned over frequently, and their sitting and lying positions should be changed to prevent complications such as bedsores; oral care should be done for patients with bleeding to keep the airway open and prevent vomit from being inhaled into the trachea and causing suffocation and death; for patients with severe cancer pain, in addition to timely symptomatic treatment, family members should also give patients spiritual comfort to eliminate their fear. At the same time, they should closely observe the patient's vital signs to detect critical lesions in a timely manner and take effective treatment measures in a timely manner.

3. Observe the condition

Finally, nursing care for lung cancer must also insist on observing the condition. Because patients with advanced lung cancer often experience tumor metastasis and a variety of symptoms after tumor metastasis, such as blurred vision, convulsions and coma after liver and brain metastasis, patients and their families need to observe the condition at any time and take appropriate nursing measures in time, such as strengthening the protection of patients' limbs when bone metastasis occurs.

The above tells you how to do good nursing work for lung cancer. I hope it can bring more help to everyone, so we must do a good job of prevention and nursing, and try to go to the hospital for regular check-ups, so that we can detect the disease as soon as possible, get treatment early and recover as soon as possible.
