Abstract：Objective: To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of school adaptation in childhood leukemia survivors’ return to school. Methods: From March 2022 to September 2022, 102 cases of childhood leukemia survivors were selected using convenience sampling from the Second Affiliated Hospital & Yuying Children’s Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and the Children’s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine. The general data questionnaire and School Adaptation Scale were used for the investigation. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to study the influencing factors of school adaptation in childhood leukemia survivors back to school. Results: The total score of school adaptation in childhood leukemia survivors returning to school was (106.18±14.53). The scores of the dimensions were learning adaptation (29.75±4.34), behavioral adaptation (27.67±4.85), relational adaptation (30.01±3.57), and emotional adaptation (18.75±5.58). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, length of school absence, physical decline, and change in appearance and image were the main factors affecting school adaptation of childhood leukemia survivors to return to school (P<0.05), which could explain 57% of the total variation. Conclusion: The school adaptation of childhood leukemia survivors is at low level, which needs active coordination among families, hospitals and schools. To promote their school adaptation, special attention should be paid to childhood leukemia survivors aged 13-16, who have suspended from school for 2-3 years and have experienced physical decline as well as image change.
