Abstrakt:	Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of psychological nursing intervention on the short- and long-term negative emotions and changes in the quality of life in patients with cervical cancer who underwent postoperative chemotherapy. Methods: 141 patients with cervical cancer who received postoperative chemotherapy in our hospital were recruited as the study cohort. They were divided into the study group (80 cases) and the control group (61 cases) according to the different nursing methods each underwent. The patients in the control group underwent routine nursing, and the study group also underwent psychological nursing. The changes in the quality of life and the negative emotions of the patients in the two groups before and after the intervention were compared, and the correlation between the quality of life and the negative emotions were explored. Results: The patients' Quality of Life Questionnaire (EROTC-QLQ-C30) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) scores in the two groups before the intervention were not significantly different (P > 0.05). A re-evaluation at the end of the 90 day-intervention showed that the EROTC-QLQ-C30 scores in the study group were significantly higher than they were in the control group (P < 0.05). A dynamic evaluation showed that the proportion of patients with mild anxiety in the study group was higher than it was in the control group at 30, 60, and 90 days of intervention (P < 0.05). A Spearman correlation analysis showed that the SAS scale and EROTC-QLQ-C30 scores were negatively correlated (r=-0.4438, P < 0.05). Conclusion: The implementation of psychological intervention can help alleviate the short- and long-term negative emotions of cervical cancer patients who underwent postoperative chemotherapy, and it is feasible and conducive to the patients' quality of life. We recommend carrying out the clinical promotion and application of this psychological intervention. Competing Interests: None. (AJTR Copyright © 2021.)
