Shijiazhuang Pingan Hospital

To explore the effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) health education standard path on the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A total of 60 patients with acute myeloid leukemia in Shijiazhuang Ping An Hospital were selected and divided into control group (n=30) and observation group (n=30) according to the time of admission. Both groups received the same chemotherapy, the control group received routine nursing, and the observation group received TCM health education standard path intervention. The scores of Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Spitzer Quality of Life Index (QLI), awareness of TCM health education standard path content and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
