Abstract
AIM
Patients with urological tumours may exhibit varying degrees of physiological and psychological distress during the course of treatment. This study aims to explore the influence of psychological nursing model based on the Rosenthal effect on the mental health and quality of life of patients.
METHODS
The clinical data of 120 patients who underwent surgical treatment of urinary system tumours in the department of urology in our hospital from June 2023 to October 2023 were collected retrospectively. The patients were divided into the observation and control groups according to the nursing mode under the Rosenthal effect. Fifty cases were assigned in the observation group, and 70 cases were placed in the control group. The intervention period was 2 weeks and 3 months. The patients were scored and compared according to Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), 36-Item Short-Form (SF-36), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) the day before and after the intervention cycle.
RESULTS
After nursing, the scores of SAS, SDS and PSQI in the two groups were lower than those before nursing. Compared with the control group, the observation group had a higher decrease. The SF-36 score in both groups after nursing was higher than that before nursing, and the score in the observation group after nursing was higher than that in the control group (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The psychological care model based on the Rosenthal effect can effectively improve the psychological health and quality of life of urological oncology patients in the postoperative period. This intervention is worth to be promoted and practiced in medical institutions and professional fields.
