ABSTRACT: Purpose: Use the psychological
resilience development model to formulate effective nursing measures, and
explore the impact of relevant nursing measures on the psychological resilience
and post-traumatic growth of patients. Methods: Using a general data sheet,
post-traumatic growth scale, and psychological resilience scale, 100 patients
discharged from the hospital after esophageal cancer were investigated in
groups, and statistical software spss26.0 was used for statistical analysis.
Results: The psychological resilience and post-traumatic growth levels of the experimental group were significantly higher than
those of the control group, the P-value.
Conclusion: As a common gastrointestinal tumor, esophageal cancer is
traumatized by surgery. Not only will there be more discomfort during
hospitalization, but also a series of complications will still occur after
discharge, such as pain, weakness, and other discomforts, which will cause the
patient’s emotions. Subject to strong fluctuations, the patient suffers great
psychological trauma. After being discharged from the hospital, caregivers need
to master more related skills when caring for patients, which is time-consuming
and labor-intensive, and often causes the patients to feel the emotion of
dragging the family members. Under the condition of both physical and
psychological pressure, patients often appear fearful and uneasy, and suffer
great psychological trauma, which leads to low levels of psychological
resilience and post-traumatic growth of patients, and related nursing
interventions based on Rutter’s psychological development model It can
significantly improve the patient’s psychological flexibility, improve the
patient’s post-traumatic growth level, promote the patient’s physical and
mental recovery, make the patient produce positive emotions, increase positive
psychological changes, and thereby improve the patient’s quality of life after
discharge.
