概括
治疗触摸 (HT) 和放松训练 (RT) 可以改善癌症患者的新陈代谢. 这项研究发现,与常规治疗相比,接受HT或RT的患者的代谢特征有所不同,这表明癌症治疗副作用的潜在益处.
科学领域:
- 综合性瘤学
- 代谢学
- 癌症患者的护理
背景情况:
- 癌症化疗会引起疲劳,疼痛,恶心和焦虑等副作用.
- 治愈触摸 (HT) 是癌症患者用于管理治疗副作用的补充疗法.
- 了解补充疗法的生物机制对于其有效地融入癌症治疗至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 在接受化疗的宫癌患者中研究Healing Touch (HT) 的代谢效应.
- 为了比较接受HT,放松训练 (RT) 或常规护理 (UC) 的患者的代谢特征.
- 探索癌症患者补充疗法的潜在生物机制.
主要方法:
- 44名接受化疗的宫癌患者的血样本的探索性代谢分析.
- 患者被随机分为三个组:治疗触摸 (HT),放松训练 (RT) 和常规护理 (UC).
- 在基线,4周和6周进行了代谢分析,每周进行4次HT或RT.
主要成果:
- 从基线到第6周,单变性分析显示每个组的特定代谢物发生变化.
- 治疗触摸 (HT) 组表现出较低的乙甲酸,胆酸和素.
- 在HT和放松训练 (RT) 组中,脂肪酸含量较高,而在常规治疗 (UC) 组中,氨酸和酸盐含量较低.
- 与UC相比,HT和RT组的代谢相关网络显示出更大的代谢灵活性和弹性.
结论:
- 这项探索性研究表明,与癌症患者的治疗触摸 (HT) 相关的代谢特征可能存在差异.
- 这些发现表明HT和放松训练 (RT) 可能影响与癌症治疗副作用相关的代谢途径.
- 需要进行更大规模的研究来证实这些初步的代谢发现及其对癌症治疗的临床影响.

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Cancer Therapies

Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Decreased Body Temperature

A decreased body temperature can occur in patients with hypothermia and frostbite. Heat loss with extended cold exposure overpowers the body's ability to create heat, resulting in hypothermia. Core temperature readings help classify hypothermia. Mild hypothermia is temperatures between 32 °C (89.6 °F) and 35°C (95 °F) and is caused by impaired thermoregulation. Moderate hypothermia is temperatures between 28 C (82.4 °F) and 32 °C (89.6 °F) caused by...
