摘要
目的探讨地塞米松对晚期癌症患者生活质量的改善情况。方法将无锡市锡山区锡北人民医院2010年2月至2013年4月收治的肿瘤晚期患者84例,按照随机数字表法分为两组,每组各42例。A组在支持疗法的基础上视患者病情轻重加用地塞米松2—20mg/次,2-4d逐渐减量,5—7d后停药;B组仅给予支持疗法。按Karnofsky(i(PS)评分标准、疼痛评估、临床症状缓解情况,观察记录晚期癌症患者的生活改善情况。结果A组的KPS评分提高率显著高于B组(73.8%vs42.8%)(P〈0.05);A组和B组总疼痛缓解率分别为91.6%、66.6%,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05);地塞米松可明显缓解晚期肿瘤患者食欲不振、恶心呕吐、焦虑、疲倦乏力、心悸自汗等症状,与B组比较差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。结论地塞米松能有效地改善晚期癌症患者的生活质量,具有一定的临床价值。
