A controlled study: Evaluating the clinical impact of a nurse‐centred multidisciplinary hospice care model on anxiety, depression, and quality of life in patients with advanced malignant tumours

Abstract Objective To explore the clinical effect of a nurse‐centred multidisciplinary collaborative hospice care model in patients with advanced malignant tumours. Methods A total of 30 patients with advanced malignant tumours were hospitalised and randomly divided into a study group and a control group, each consisting of 15 cases. The study group received nurse‐led multidisciplinary collaborative hospice care, whereas the control group underwent high‐quality nursing intervention. Variables such as the self‐rating anxiety scale (SAS) score, self‐rating depression scale (SDS) score, quality of life scale (EORTC QLQ‐C30) score, patient happiness, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results Post‐intervention, the SAS and SDS scores in the study group were lower than those in the control group ( p < 0.01). The overall quality of life score of the study group was higher than that of the control group ( p < 0.01). The Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness scores in the study group also surpassed those of the control group ( p < 0.01). Additionally, nursing satisfaction in the study group exceeded that of the control group ( p = 0.027). Conclusion The nurse‐led multidisciplinary collaborative hospice care model substantially alleviated negative emotions among patients, effectively improved their quality of life and happiness, and garnered positive evaluations of nursing satisfaction.
