Abstract：Objective:To investigate the effect of the extended nursing care on the quality of life of patients With laparoscopic myomecto_my. Methods:25 discharged patients(from June to December 2O12)Who received surgical treatment for uterine fibroids Were taKen as the control group;other 25 patients(from January to June 2O13)undergoing surgery for uterine fibroids Were taKen as the observation group. The patients in both groups Were treated With laparoscopic myomectomy under general anesthesia. The patients in the control group Were given routine discharged nursing care and the patients in the observation group Were additionally given the extended nursing care after dis_charge. The BISF — W and NHP Were used to evaluate and compare the sexual life and quality of life of the patients in the tWo groups be_fore nursing care and after nursing care for 3 months. Results:There Were not statistically significant differences in the comparison of the scores of each item of BISF — W and NHP betWeen the tWo groups before nursing care(P > O. O5);the scores of each item of BISF — W and NHP Were significantly superior in the observation group to the control group after nursing intervention for 3 months(P < O. O5). Con_clusions:The extended nursing care for the discharged patients With laparoscopic myomectomy can effectively improve the sexual life and quality of life of the patients.
