Health education for postoperative patients with ovarian tumor

1. Explain to patients and their families the harm of ovarian tumors to women, especially the unknown cause of malignant tumors, which is difficult to prevent. Benign tumors will become malignant tumors. Ovarian tumor is deeply hidden in the pelvic cavity, and there are few symptoms at the initial stage, so it is difficult to find it early. Therefore, most cases are advanced or metastatic at the time of initial diagnosis. Therefore, once the tumor is found, surgery should be performed after diagnosis. If ovarian tumor-like lesions are suspected, short-term treatment and observation can be carried out. 2. Explain to patients and their families that the operation of ovarian tumor depends on the patient's age, fertility requirements and ovarian status, and determines the scope of operation and the impact on life after operation. Tell the patient that there is no need to panic when finding the tumor. Most ovarian tumors are benign, and the prognosis of surgical treatment is good. 3. If the patient is a malignant tumor, it is necessary to explain to the patient and his family that the treatment principle is mainly surgery, plus chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and comprehensive treatment. Tell patients more examples of curing the same disease, so as to eliminate fear and establish confidence in overcoming the disease. 4. Explain the relationship between disease and emotion: anxiety, pessimism and fear can cause psychological imbalance, and circadian rhythm disorder can aggravate the condition. Optimistic and stable mood is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
