What is the nursing routine for small cell lung cancer

Nowadays, the natural environment is seriously polluted, which increases the risk of small cell lung cancer. When suffering from this disease, treatment is one aspect and care is another. So how should we care for small cell lung cancer? Next, let us learn about the routine care for small cell lung cancer.

1. Provide dietary education. While controlling headache, nausea and vomiting symptoms and dealing with poor appetite, encourage patients to eat high-calorie, high-protein, high-vitamin, light and easily digestible food, and eat small meals frequently, which has increased patients' tolerance to treatment, reduced complications and improved prognosis.

2. Establish safety protection measures, such as keeping the floor dry and telling patients to wear non-slip slippers to prevent them from falling. For patients with poor self-care ability, provide bed rails, assign special personnel to take care of them, and prohibit them from moving alone.

3. Maintain normal airway. If the patient vomits frequently, especially those who vomit in a jet-like manner, they should lie on their side and clean their mouth and nose in time after vomiting. For bedridden patients, they should be turned over and patted on the back on time to prevent the occurrence of lung complications. This is also a measure to keep the airway open.
