Core Tip: Lung cancer is a high incidence and high mortality tumor disease. At present, routine postoperative care lacks psychological support for patients. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the application effect of narrative nursing method based on psychological support in postoperative intensive care unit patients. Through randomized controlled experiments, scale scores and statistical analysis, it was found that the pain score, anxiety score and depression score of patients under narrative nursing method were significantly reduced. The results show that narrative nursing method has great advantages in emotional support of patients with lung cancer complicated with cancer pain.
