RETRACTED: Analysis of Current Situation and Influencing Factors of Psychological Distress in Patients with Lung Cancer during Perioperative Period (Retracted Article)

Objective. To explore the degree of psychological distress in patients with lung cancer during the perioperative period and analyze its influencing factors. Method. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 372 perioperative patients with lung cancer admitted to our hospital by a convenience sampling method using general data collection and psychological pain thermometer scores. Results. The psychological distress score of 372 patients with lung cancer in the perioperative period was 4.10 +/- 2.88. The psychological distress of patients was related to physical problems, practical problems, medical expenses, and family communication problems. Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, economic burden caused by disease, child care, lack of interest in daily activities, and anxiety were the main factors affecting the degree of suffering of lung cancer patients. Conclusion. The proportion of perioperative lung cancer patients with a psychological distress score >= 4 points was 55.6%, and more than half of the perioperative patients with lung cancer had a moderate level of psychological distress. Medical staff should pay attention to the management of the psychological distress of patients with lung cancer during the perioperative period, help patients solve practical problems in the process of cancer treatment, strengthen society's attention to female lung cancer patients, and establish a comprehensive cancer public welfare organization group.
