Abstract

Objective To investigate the degree of symptom distress in patients with thyroid cancer after operation and analyze its correlation with quality of life. Method One hundred and twenty-seven patients with thyroid cancer who visited a tertiary care hospital in Hunan Province from October 2022 to April 2023 were selected as the study subjects and investigated with general data questionnaire, Anderson Symptom Scale-Thyroid Cancer Module, and thyroid cancer-specific quality of life scale. Results The total score of symptom distress was (91.95±38.57) points and the total score of thyroid cancer-specific quality of life scale was (41.71±8.12) points. Multivariate analysis showed that gender, surgical methods and quality of life were the influencing factors of symptom distress in patients with thyroid cancer (P<0.01), and symptom distress was positively correlated with quality of life (r=0.599, P<0.001). Conclusion Patients with thyroid cancer after operation generally have symptom distress and relatively low quality of life. Medical staff can take corresponding measures to reduce the symptom distress of patients after operation, so as to improve the quality of life of patients.
