Cervical cancer radiotherapy patients have a decline in quality of life and sexual quality of life

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Objective: To investigate the quality of life and sexual quality of life and its influencing factors in cervical cancer undergoing radiotherapy patients.

Methods:The cervical cancer cancer scale (FACT-Cx4.0) and the female sexual function index (FSFI) in the cancer treatment function evaluation system were used. The quality of life and sexual quality of life of cervical cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy in PUMC Hospital were analyzed and scored to analyze the effects of age, education level, clinical stage and treatment methods on the quality of life and sexual quality of life of cervical cancer radiotherapy patients

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
using fact-cx4.0 to evaluate the qol of cervical cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of half a year

Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cervix V4.0 (FACT-Cx V4.0) was used to evaluate patients'quality of life. The scale is composed of general cancer quality of life assessment scale (FACT-G) and cervical cancer specific module (CCS). It contains 5 dimensions and 42 subjects. The higher the score of positive questions, the better the quality of life. The higher the score of reverse questions, the worse the quality of life. If it is a reverse question, the original score of this question is subtracted by 4. The higher the total score, the better the quality of life. The study was conducted by face-to-face investigation of specialist nurses. All patients'investigation data were kept strictly confidential.

And follow the principles of medical ethics.using spss to analysis the data.

through study completion, an average of half a year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
using fsfi to evaluate the qol of cervical cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of half a year
Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) was used to measure the quality of sexual life. The higher the score of positive items, the worse the quality of sexual life. If the reverse items were negative, the original score of the item could be subtracted by 5. The higher the total score, the better the quality of sexual life. The study was conducted by face-to-face investigation by specialist nurses. All patients'investigation data were strictly confidential and followed the medical ethics principles.using spss to analysis the data.
through study completion, an average of half a year
