About the trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether human-centered nursing care lowers emotional distress and improves quality of life for people who are awake during thyroid thermal ablation. The procedure uses local anesthesia, so participants remain awake and may feel tense. Human-centered care focuses on emotional support, clear communication, comfort, and follow-up, and it may improve the experience and recovery for patients. The main questions are: Does human-centered nursing care reduce emotional distress levels in patients undergoing thyroid thermal ablation? Does human-centered nursing care improve patient quality of life after thyroid thermal ablation? If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare human-centered nursing care to usual nursing care to see if human-centered care leads to lower emotional distress and higher quality of life. Participants will: Receive either human-centered nursing care or usual nursing care. Complete questionnaires before, during, and after the procedure to measure emotional distress, quality of life, pain, and satisfaction with care. Have their vital signs and quality of life tracked during and after the procedure. Have their adherence to care plans and any complications monitored. The main outcomes are emotional distress levels and quality of life. Other outcomes include pain and vital signs during the procedure, satisfaction with care, and complication rates. Results may guide better care for people undergoing small, minimally invasive treatments while awake.
