摘要
目的采用国际生活质量量表评价中医药治疗老年晚期非小细胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC)的疗效。方法将91例老年晚期NSCLC患者随机分成中医组(31例)、化疗组(30例)及中医加化疗组(30例)。中医组采用中药汤剂口服加中药注射剂静脉滴注治疗方法;化疗组单纯接受化疗方案治疗;中医加化疗组采用化疗方案治疗的同时服用中药汤剂,28天为1个周期,均治疗2个周期。分别于治疗前、第2个治疗周期的第10天及第28天采用欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织肺癌生活质量量表(EORTC QLQ-LC43)进行评价。结果经2个周期治疗后,中医组和中医加化疗组患者躯体功能、角色功能、情绪功能、社会功能及总健康状况领域评分高于化疗组,气促、咳嗽、疲倦、失眠、食欲丧失及便秘症状评分低于化疗组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0·05,P<0·01)。结论中医药治疗可减轻老年晚期NSCLC患者的临床症状,改善患者生活质量。
