- Abstract
Esophageal carcinoma is one of the most common digestive tract malignancies and poses a serious health threat to patients. This study discussed the influence of stepwise nutrition management and comprehensive nursing on esophageal carcinoma patients, which can shed light on the future clinical treatment of esophageal carcinoma. A total of 107 esophageal carcinoma patients admitted to our hospital between July 2022 and June 2023 were divided into a control group (n = 54) that received conventional care and an experimental group (n = 53) that received stepwise nutrition management along with comprehensive care. The postoperative rehabilitation time and clinical efficacy of the two groups were statistically analyzed, and differences in nutritional status and physical fitness before and after care were determined. The results showed that the experimental group had a faster first postoperative anal exhaust, bowel movement, ambulation, and anastomotic healing time than the control group (P < 0.05). No marked intergroup difference was identified in the overall response rate (P > 0.05). In addition, better nutritional status and physical fitness were observed in the experimental group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The experimental group exhibited a lower incidence of adverse reactions (P < 0.05) than the control group. These findings demonstrated the vital role of stepwise nutrition management in combination with comprehensive nursing for esophageal carcinoma patients.
