Abstract

Background: Cancer is a common disease and has always been a health concern globally. With the rising number of patients, so comes the need for palliative care (PC). However, the implementation of CSGN in health facilities is still difficult and has not met the needs of patients. Objective: Assessment of change in quality of life (CLCS) of cancer patients at Thu Duc Hospital after palliative care intervention. Methods: The experimental simulation design did not have a pre- and post-intervention comparative control group (4 rounds). After 1 round of initial assessment and 4 rounds of post-intervention evaluation (1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks), 115 patients were fully monitored through rounds of inpatient and outpatient treatment at the Oncology Department, Thu Duc City Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City and primary caregivers. Results: CLCS scores increased after the intervention, which was especially significant at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. In addition, compared to working people, patients who quit their jobs had lower CLCS scores (KTC 95%: -7.22 to -1.72) Conclusion: In summary, the results of the study in 5 assessments showed that CLCS scores tended to increase. The average score after 8 weeks of intervention compared to the pre-intervention CLCS score increased from 55.4 to 65.4.
