Common nursing problems and countermeasures for patients with esophageal cancer

Patients with esophageal cancer should receive careful care at all stages of treatment. During the treatment process, patients with esophageal cancer will experience various adverse symptoms, including physical pain, psychological depression, and low mood. In this case, medical care How should personnel and their families deal with it? Many experts introduce common nursing problems and countermeasures for esophageal cancer patients as follows
Common nursing problems for esophageal cancer patients include
Inability to move: pain, malnutrition, cachexia.
Main manifestations: dizziness, dizziness, weakness in limbs, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, chest pain, sweating, etc., and decreased ability to take care of themselves in daily life such as getting out of bed, eating, personal hygiene, and going to the toilet.
Nursing measures: Let the patient understand the necessity of rest, especially before getting out of bed or eating. Put commonly used items in a place that is easily accessible to the patient. Assist the patient with daily care, such as eating, personal hygiene, and eating. Toilet, etc., to meet the needs of the patient. Work with the patient or family members to formulate an appropriate activity plan. Based on the patient's tolerance, gradually increase the amount and time of activity. When the patient moves, keep the floor dry, remove indoor obstacles, and have someone Accompany the patient to ensure patient safety and guide the patient to learn self-monitoring of activity responses, such as measuring blood pressure, pulse, and respiration during and after activity.
Pain: The mediastinum is invaded by cancer cells.
Main manifestations: Eating can cause burning pain and dull pain behind the sternum. The pain is more obvious after ingesting overheated or acidic food. The pain can involve the upper sternum concavity, scapula, neck, etc. In the late stage, there is persistent chest and back pain.
Nursing measures: Avoid eating overheated, rough or acidic foods to reduce local irritation, provide a quiet and comfortable resting environment, and ensure adequate sleep to reduce pain. Observe the location, nature, extent and duration of the patient's pain and teach the patient Use distraction methods, such as self-relaxation, hypnosis, listening to music, etc. to report the pain promptly when the pain is severe.
Say goodbye to the days of being unable to eat. Ginsenoside Rh treats esophageal cancer
Enjoying delicious food is the most basic need in life. However, esophageal cancer, a health killer, makes patients smell and look discolored when eating, making eating extremely painful. Esophageal cancer, whose medical name is esophageal squamous epithelial malignant tumor, is one of the common malignant tumors in clinical practice. Progressive dysphagia is its most typical clinical symptom. Due to the compression of the cancer, the patient has difficulty swallowing, which gradually worsens. Every time he swallows food, he suffers from retrosternal pain or swelling, and the same applies when he changes from solid food to liquid food. When the cancer further compresses the recurrent laryngeal nerve, it can cause hoarseness, invade the phrenic nerve, and cause hiccups, or paralysis of the phrenic nerve and erode the aorta, which can cause fatal bleeding. my country is a country with a high incidence of esophageal cancer and the country with the highest mortality rate from this disease. There are about 10,000 new cases of esophageal cancer every year in the world, and about 10,000 in my country, accounting for half of them.
Esophageal cancer is a ferocious disease, and its symptoms also cause unimaginable pain to patients. It is urgent to actively seek effective treatment drugs. Studies have shown that ginsenoside Rh can effectively kill esophageal cancer cells by inducing cell apoptosis through the cell cycle regulation mechanism. The biggest difference between esophageal cancer cells and normal cells is that they proliferate very quickly. Therefore, it is necessary to control the high proliferation of esophageal cancer cells through cell cycle regulation in order to achieve the best therapeutic goal. The cell proliferation cycle is generally divided into phases, , , and , the most critical of which are the D doubling and chromosome replication phases. Through research, it was found that ginsenoside Rh mainly kills tumor cells in the proliferation phase, especially the most sensitive cells in the early and late stages.
Li Li of Hebei Medical University and others experimentally determined that ginsenoside Rh can inhibit the proliferation of esophageal cancer cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Ginsenoside Rh can affect the phase distribution of the cell cycle. As the drug dose increases, the number of cells in the / phase gradually increases, and the number of cells in the / phase gradually decreases. This shows that ginsenoside Rh can block esophageal cancer cells in the / phase, without affecting the cell cycle. Re-proliferate to carry out D repair and cell differentiation. By preventing damaged cells from entering the stage for D synthesis, it inhibits the excessive proliferation of cancer cells and induces their differentiation.
Xu Hongjun and others from the Pathophysiology Research Office of the Basic Medical College of Jilin University also confirmed through experiments that the proliferation ability of esophageal cancer H cells treated with ginsenoside Rh was significantly reduced, and the number of cells in the peace phase was significantly reduced. It shows that ginsenoside Rh can inhibit the growth of esophageal cancer cells or directly kill esophageal cancer cells, causing the volume of cancer tissue to shrink or the mass to disappear. At the same time, apoptosis is different from cell death. Cell death can cause inflammatory reactions, while apoptosis can maintain the shape of cells and reduce surrounding inflammatory reactions.
Ginsenoside Rh can not only inhibit the high proliferation of esophageal cancer cells, but also fundamentally kill cancer cells. It is also effective in eliminating cancerous tumors, anti-inflammatory and analgesic, and is helpful in relieving patients' pain. At the same time, ginsenoside Rh has the effect of strengthening the body and strengthening the body, which is more conducive to the rapid recovery of the patient's own immune system, the number of platelets and white blood cells returns to normal, the appetite increases, and it also has good effects such as analgesic and sleep, comprehensively improving the quality of life of patients with esophageal cancer and getting rid of the disease. The pain of not being able to eat.
