Cancer Invest. 2024 Mar;42(3):202-211. doi: 10.1080/07357907.2024.2308173. Epub 2024 Mar 19.

Abstract

To evaluate the impact of perioperative comprehensive nursing intervention on postoperative urinary incontinence, various aspects of patient well-being were assessed. The comprehensive group, that received the nursing intervention, demonstrated significant improvements in self-care skills, health knowledge level, self-care responsibility, and self-concept compared to the standard group. The findings indicate that perioperative comprehensive nursing intervention has a remarkable effect on patients undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. This nursing intervention not only effectively improves postoperative urinary incontinence and alleviates negative emotions, such as anxiety and depression. Therefore, the implementation of this nursing intervention model is highly recommended for clinical practice and wider application.

Keywords: Laparoscope; comprehensive nursing; perioperative period; postoperative urinary incontinence; quality of life; radical prostatectomy.
