Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of psychological counseling for fear of cancer recurrence, and in particular to a method and equipment for psychological counseling for fear of cancer recurrence in oral cancer patients. Background Art

[0002] As a common malignant tumor, the incidence of oral cancer continues to rise worldwide, especially among the middle-aged and elderly population. After undergoing surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy, patients often face the fear of cancer recurrence, which not only affects the patient's psychological state, but may also have a profound negative impact on their quality of life, social function and recovery process.

[0003] At present, psychological counseling methods for oral cancer patients' fear of cancer recurrence mainly focus on traditional psychological counseling and intervention, such as face-to-face conversations and cognitive behavioral therapy. Although these methods can alleviate patients' fear and anxiety to a certain extent, they have many limitations. For example, face-to-face conversations often require patients to spend a lot of time and energy to go to medical institutions, and are limited by time, place, and personnel, making it difficult to conduct them anytime and anywhere. Although cognitive behavioral therapy is effective, it usually requires long-term and systematic intervention by professional psychological counselors, which may make it difficult for patients with limited resources or in remote areas to obtain timely and effective services.

[0004] In addition, existing psychological counseling methods often lack pertinence and personalization. The psychological state and needs of oral cancer patients vary from person to person, and different patients may require different psychological counseling strategies and methods. However, traditional psychological counseling methods often adopt a "one-size-fits-all" approach, which is difficult to meet the personalized needs of different patients.

[0005] In recent years, with the continuous development of science and technology, some new psychological counseling methods and equipment have gradually emerged. These new methods and equipment have the characteristics of intelligence, convenience, and personalization, providing new ideas and means for the psychological counseling of oral cancer patients with fear of cancer recurrence. However, how to effectively apply these new methods and equipment to the psychological counseling of oral cancer patients, and how to customize and optimize them according to the psychological state and needs of patients, are still urgent problems to be solved. Therefore, the development of a targeted and personalized psychological counseling method and equipment for oral cancer patients with fear of cancer recurrence based on doctor's advice is of great significance to improving patients' psychological resilience, improving their quality of life, and promoting the recovery process. To this end, we propose a psychological counseling method and equipment for oral cancer patients with fear of cancer recurrence. Summary of the invention
