Abstract：Objective To explore the effect of nutrition education and nutrition consultation based on WeChat platform on the nutritional status of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing radiotherapy.Methods A total of 60 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who received radiotherapy in our department from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected and divided into control group and observation group according to the order of admission,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was given routine nursing,and the observation group was combined with WeChat platform for nutrition educa-tion and nutrition consultation on the basis of the control group.The nutritionr-elated indicators hemoglobin(Hb),serum albumin(ALB),serum prealbumin(PA),NRS2002 score and the incidence of radiation-induced oral mucositis were compared between the two groups before and after radiotherapy.Results After intervention,the nutritional status of the observation group was better than that of the control group,and the incidence of radioactive oral mucositis in the obs-ervation group was lower than that in the control group,the difference was stat-istically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Nutrition education and nutrition consu-ltation based on WeChat platform can improve the nutritional status of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing radiotherapy,reduce the incidence of radioactive oral mucositis,and is conducive to the treatment and prognosis of patients.
