Effects of Snyder's Hope Theory and Continuity of Care Among Postoperative Individuals With Glioma.

To assess the impact of Snyder's hope theory-guided nursing care combined with continuity of care on postoperative individuals with glioma undergoing chemotherapy.

112 patients with glioma receiving postoperative chemotherapy were randomly assigned to control and observation groups.

The control group received routine nursing whereas the observation group received additional care based on Snyder's hope theory, combined with continuous nursing. Negative emotions, self-care agency, cancer-related fatigue, hope levels, quality of life, adverse reactions, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the groups.

The observation group showed significantly lower anxiety and depression (p < 0.05) and higher self-care advocacy, hope levels, and quality of life than the control group (p < 0.05). Fatigue and the incidence of adverse reactions were significantly lower in the observation group (p < 0.05). Nursing satisfaction in the observation group was significantly higher.

Snyder's hope theory-guided nursing care with continuity of care improves psychological well-being, self-care agency, and quality of life, and reduces fatigue and side effects among individuals with glioma undergoing chemotherapy.
