Comprehensive nursing intervention in treatment for severe acute pancreatitis

Abstract

Objective To explore the clinical assistant effect of comprehensive nursing intervention in treatment for severe acute pancreatitis. Methods 100 patients with severe acute pancreatitis admitted into our hospital from October, 2015 to October, 2016 were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group. The control group were routinely cared and the experimental group were intervened with comprehensive nursing care. The related clinical indicators, clinical events, SAS and SDS scores before and after intervention, and family nursing satisfaction were compared between these two groups. Results The times for the recovery of abdominal distension and abdominal pain, infection disappearing time, and hospital stay were shorter and the total incidence of clinical events was lower in the experimental group than in the control group [ (4.02±0.93) d vs. (5.73±0.89) d, (3.55±0.71) d vs. (4.80±0.73) d, (10.33±1.64) d vs. (13.29±1.96) d, (14.60±2.05) d vs. (18.36±3.79) d, and 28% vs. 54%]. After the intervention, the scores of SAS and SDS were (38.63±8.73) and (39.11±7.57) in the experimental group and were (53.19±9.15) and (53.76±9.42) in the control group. The satisfaction rate of family care was 76% in the experimental group and was 60% in the control group. There were statistical differences between these two groups (all P <0.01). Conclusion Comprehensive nursing intervention in treatment for severe acute pancreatitis is significantly effective and can improve the satisfaction.
