Nursing care
EXPERIMENTALInvestigators used in-house-designed radiotherapy red and green light markers to distinguish individual measures after the provision of the initial nursing care to participants, added a homemade health education leaflet to collect data via actual observation, and counted the disappearance or fading of participants' body markers
Interventions
1. Consistent Schedule for the Replacement of Positioning Line Pens 2. Tailored Educational Content 3. Hypoallergenic Adhesive Patches 4. Enriched Treatment Care Platform 5. Participants with BMI \> 25 and an education level of high school or below, without specific caregivers, were identified by placing a red dot on the treatment record and on the patient's happiness card. Patients with BMI \< 25 and an education level of high school or above, with specific caregivers, were identified by placing a green dot on their records. 6. Individual interventions, educational pamphlets prepared in-house were added, to assess the maintenance status of the positioning marks.
