Core Tip

Core Tip: Treatment for brain glioma is always challenging. Surgery associated complications, psychological dysfunction and poor quality of life are some of the more common harms of the disease and should be actively managed. Comprehensive nursing aims to increase patients’ knowledge about their disease and encourages patients to improve their confidence and positive attitude to manage their disease through evaluation and intervention measures. This study explored the effectiveness of comprehensive nursing in relieving anxiety and depression and optimizing quality of life in patients with brain glioma undergoing operation.
