Key Words Cervical cancer; Radiotherapy; Anxiety; Depression; Coping styles; Uncertainty in illness
Core Tip This study comprehensively analyzed anxiety, depression, and coping styles and their association with illness uncertainty in patients with cervical cancer (CC) undergoing radiotherapy. The study enrolled 200 patients with CC undergoing radiotherapy. Several key findings of this study include a 39.5% prevalence of anxiety and a 41.0% prevalence of depression among the patients. Anxiety, depression, and several coping styles correlated significantly with the level of illness uncertainty during radiotherapy. These findings highlight the importance of healthcare providers in addressing patients’ emotional states and coping strategies and providing customized psychological support plans tailored to help patients alleviate negative emotions and develop healthy coping strategies, thereby reducing their illness uncertainty. This study provides novel insights and empirical data to inform nursing care and clinical decision-making for patients with CC.
