Objective: To explore the effect of comprehensive nursing on pain, anxiety and malnutrition of hepatitis B patients.

Methods: Totally 100 cases of hepatitis B patients received treatment in our hospital from July 2017 to July 2018 were divided into a study group (64 cases) and a control group (36 cases) for comprehensive nursing and routine nursing. The liver function, nutritional indexes, cognition of relevant nursing knowledge, VAS score, HAMD and HAMA scores, QOL score, total effective rate and incidence of adverse reactions were detected.

Results: Compared with the control group, the study group had lower liver function indexes and higher nutrition indexes, suggesting that the liver function of patients in the study group recovered better. Besides, the VAS score of the study group was lower, suggesting better pain relief in the study group. Moreover, the study group had higher scores of related nursing knowledge and lower scores of HAMD and HAMA, indicating that the nursing method in the study group was more effective in reducing depression and anxiety. Higher QOL score, higher total effective rate and lower incidence of adverse reactions of the study group revealed that the nursing mode adopted in this group was better for the recovery of patients.

Conclusion: Comprehensive nursing can effectively alleviate the pain of hepatitis B patients, relieve their anxiety and other negative emotions, and improve their malnutrition.
