Abstract:Objective To investigate quality of life(QOL)and its influencing factors of cancer related fatigue(CRF)in patientswith digestive tract tumor.M ethods 100 patients with the digestive tract tumor were selected in Department of Oncology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were randomly selected from June 2014 to June 2016 and their scoresweremeasured by atigue self-assessment scale of Piper and QOL survey scale.SPSS software analysis was used.The general condition index,CRF index and QOL of the research objects were measured.Results The overall fatigue index was 5.26+0.90,ofwhich there were 8 cases of no fatigue or slight fatigue,accounting for 8%;72 cases ofmoderate degree of fatigue,72%of the total,and 20 cases of severe fatigue,accounting for 20%.The overall score of CRFwas(117.92+22.88)scores,4 subscale scores from low to high ranking,the highest for the behavior dimension was(33.23+6.37)scores,followed by the cognitive dimension with(32.04+6.43)scores,emotional dimension with(26.69+5.59)scores,the lowest perceived dimension with(25.96+4.73)scores,behavioral changes in CRF was themost obvious.Sleep quality and CRF degree was correlative,sleep quality wasworse,CRF degree wasmore serious,and the difference was statistically significant(F=6.700,P<0.01);appetite condition and CRF degree was correlative, appetite condition wasworse,CRF degree wasmore serious,and the difference was statistically significant(F=9.609,P<0.01);degree of pain and CRF degree was correlative,degree of pain was worse,CRF degree wasmore serious,and the difference was statistically significant(F=11.773,P<0.01).Conclusion The Medical staff should pay close attention to patients′sleep,appetite and pain,and take targetedmeasures to improve QOL and the status of CRF in the digestive tract tumor patients.
