| Abstract |
This study was to explore the clinical value of skin nursing intervention on wound healing and nursing satisfaction of patients with head and neck tumor radiotherapy. From April 2024 to April 2025, 100 patients with head and neck tumor radiotherapy in our hospital were randomly divided into observation group (n=50) and control group (n=50). The control group received routine nursing, while the observation group received skin care on the basis of routine nursing. The wound healing time and healing rate, the incidence of acute skin toxicity under RTOG classification system, VAS pain intensity score, EORTC QLQ-C30 quality of life score, and nursing satisfaction (Likert 5 score scale) were compared between the two groups. The results showed that the wound healing time of the observation group was shorter, the healing rate was higher (P<0.05), the nursing satisfaction was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05), the skin reaction of RTOG grade was lighter, the proportion of grade 0 was higher, and there was no grade IV reaction, the pain score was lower, the incidence of moderate and severe pain was lower, and the quality of life was better than that of the control group in physiology, emotion, social function and overall health (P<0.05). It shows that skin care can accelerate wound healing, improve satisfaction, and improve the quality of life, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
