Objective: To explore the hazard factors affecting the quality of life for patients with lung cancer after chemotherapy, so as to provide evidence-based clinical proof to improve their quality of life.
Methods: The clinic data of lung cancer patients treated with chemotherapy from November 2020 to November 2021 in our hospital were selected for retrospective analysis. A questionnaire survey was administered to 74 patients who met the inclusion criteria. The general condition questionnaire made by the department was used to analyzed the patients' demographic characteristics and disease status. The quality of life questionnaire for Chinese cancer patients receiving chemobiotherapy (QLQ-CCC) was used to evaluate the patients' quality of life.
Results: The research objects selected for this study scored an average of (94.53 ± 22.65) points in the quality of life. It was found by logistic regression analysis that age, education level, marital status, pathological types, monthly family income, and metastasis were the independent influencing factors that lowered the quality of life of lung cancer patients after chemotherapy (P < 0.001).
Conclusion: Chemotherapy can lead to a decline in the quality of life of lung cancer patients, and there are many factors at play. Therefore, medical and nursing staff should focus on the overall condition of patients when carrying out clinical treatment.
