Clinical Trial Summary

The European Commission's current political guidelines demonstrate into a joint plan aimed at improving and controlling cancer disease. Head and neck cancer (HNC) are the sixth most common cancer worldwide. The surgery is one of the most effective treatments, however it significantly compromises the self-care and functional capacity of the patients, so the intervention the Rehabilitation Nurse (RN) is essential. Objective: Compare the degree of dependence in discharge from patients undergoing HNC surgery with RN intervention versus general nursing care (not RN intervention). The specific objective is to analyze the role of confounders in the effect of the RN intervention on the patient dependence. Seventy-nine patients with RN intervention who undergoing a different type of surgery (1-Neck dissection, 2-Total laryngectomy with neck dissection, 3-Pelviglossomandibulectomy with neck dissection and tracheotomy, 4-Pelviglossomandibulectomy with neck dissection, pectorals major flap and tracheotomy) and all patients who undergoing the same type of surgery without RN intervention (n=72).


Clinical Trial Description

Seventy-nine patients with RN intervention who undergoing a different type of surgery (1-Neck dissection, 2-Total laryngectomy with neck dissection, 3-Pelviglossomandibulectomy with neck dissection and tracheotomy, 4-Pelviglossomandibulectomy with neck dissection, pectorals major flap and tracheotomy) and all patients who undergoing the same type of surgery without RN intervention (n=72). Differences between groups were calculated using non-parametric tests Chi-square for categorical variables and Mann-Whitney U for numeric variable. After correlation tests between variables, statistical analysis was carried out through Poisson regression to a significance level of 5%. ;
