摘要：Objective:This study aims to investigate the current status of self-care abilities among hearing-impaired cancer patients and analyze the associated influencing factors.Based on these findings,this study aims to provide a theoretical foundation for developing targeted medical care and health education interventions for this population,ultimately formulating a practical nursing program tailored to their unique needs.
Methods:A convenience sampling method was employed to recruit 116 hearing-impaired cancer patients who met the inclusion criteria.Data collection involved 3 standardized tools:a self-designed demographic questionnaire,the Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale(ESCA),and the Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS).Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the baseline characteristics,while multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to identify significant predictors of self-care ability.
Results:The cross-sectional survey revealed that participants had an average ESCA score of 99.55±19.53 and a mean PSSS score of 58.14±9.32.Statistical analysis identified several key factors influencing self-care ability,including the presence/absence of aphasia(P＜0.001);Duration of hearing loss(P＜0.01);Place of daily residence(P＜0.001);Communication methods(P＜0.05);Family economic status(P＜0.001);and Perceived level of social support(P＜0.001).
Conclusions:Hearing-impaired cancer patients exhibit moderate self-care abilities overall.There is a positive correlation between perceived social support levels and self-care ability.Critical predictors of self-care ability include demographic characteristics(residential status,duration of hearing loss),clinical features(aphasia),communication patterns,educational attainment,and socioeconomic status.This study provides valuable insights for developing targeted interventions to enhance self-care capabilities in hearing-impaired cancer patients,emphasizing the importance of addressing both personal and environmental factors.
