Objective To explore the effect of comfort care in the nursing of tumor radiotherapy patients. Methods The subjects of this study were 66 cancer radiotherapy patients admitted to our hospital from January 2024 to January 2025. Divided into a control group and an experimental group using a random number table method. The routine group received routine care, while the experimental group received comfort care on the basis of the above, with 33 cases in each group. Compare the nursing effects of two groups. Results The anxiety and depression scores of patients in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), and their quality of life scores were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of comfort care in the care of cancer radiotherapy patients can effectively improve their anxiety and depression, enhance their quality of life, and has high clinical application value.
