Methods: From May 2019 to May 2021, 290 esophageal cancer patients and their main relatives were selected by convenience sampling method in a Grade III a cancer hospital in Guangzhou;the general data questionnaire and the Chinese version of the scale of care ability of relatives’ caregivers were used. Results: The total average score of caring ability of the main relatives’ caregivers after esophageal cancer operation was (32.99 ± 3.01). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the age of the caregiver, the length of stay, the family income per capita and the experience of caring were the influencing factors. Conclusion: The caring ability of the main relatives of the patients with esophageal cancer after operation is moderate and low. The medical staff should improve the caring ability of the caregivers and take effective measures according to different influencing factors to improve the psychological state of the caregivers.展开更多

This represents the global initiative for the elimination of avoidable blindness by the year 2020.1 Seven months later, the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB) General Assembly was held in Beijing, China. During the IAPB General Assembly, the Chinese Ministry of Health, China Disabled Person' s Federation together with WHO launched the national campaign “Vision 2020: The Right to Sight” in China.展开更多
