Nursing intervention timing and symptom evolution of low anterior resection syndrome in patients with middle and low rectal cancer after sphincter-preserving surgery
This mixed-methods study reveals that low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) affects 77.38% of rectal cancer patients after sphincter-preserving surgery, with symptoms peaking at two weeks post-operation, thereby identifying this critical window as the optimal time for implementing family-centered nursing interventions to enhance self-management and social support.
