Abstract

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the clinical value of choosing “graded nursing for hand-foot syndrome” for breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The research period for this topic was from January 2023 to January 2024. Sixty hospitalized breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy were selected and divided into two groups based on differences in their nursing plans: a control group and an experimental group, each consisting of 30 cases. The nursing plans selected were basic care for the control group and graded nursing for hand-foot syndrome for the experimental group. The incidence of hand-foot syndrome and changes in quality of life were compared between the two groups. The results showed that the incidence of hand-foot syndrome in the experimental group was 30.00%, significantly lower than the 56.67% in the control group, with a notable difference (P<0.05). The quality of life scores of patients in the experimental group after intervention were significantly lower than those1 in the control group, showing a substantial difference (P<0.05). The implementation of the graded nursing plan for hand-foot syndrome in breast cancer chemotherapy patients can prevent the occurrence of hand-foot syndrome and improve the quality of life, demonstrating strong practical significance in its application.
