Abstract：Objective To investigate the correlation between nutritional status and quality of life in patients with head and neck tumors with radiation-induced oral mucositis. Method A total of 80 patients with head and neck radioactivity were investigated using the General Information Questionnaire, the Quality of Life Scale for Cancer Patients (QLQ-C30), the Patient Supervisory Overall Rating Scale (PG-SGA), and the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Response Standard (NCI-CTCAE) Patients with oral mucositis were investigated. Result In total of 80 patients met the selection criteria, including 51 males and 29 females. The age ranged from 19 to 80 years, with an average age of (58.21±11.84) years. PG-SGA evaluation results： There were 12 cases of Grade A patients, 35 cases of Grade B patients, and 33 cases of Grade C patients. Physical function, role function, cognitive function, social function, general health and fatigue, pain, constipation, diarrhea and other symptoms were significantly correlated with nutritional status (P<0.05), emotional function, nausea There was no significant correlation between vomiting, shortness of breath, insomnia, loss of appetite, economic difficulties and nutritional status (P> 0.05). Conclusions Patients with head and neck radiation oral mucositis had malnutrition to varying degrees, and their nutritional status was positively correlated with quality of life (P <0.01). Therefore, improving the nutritional status of patients with head and neck radiation oral mucositis can greatly improve the quality of life of patients, improve clinical treatment outcomes, and provide reference basis for future nursing interventions.
