Abstract
Family-centered nursing model has been widely used in the care of children patients, but there is still a lack of research on the care of children with primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS). Therefore, the aim of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the effects of family-centered nursing on children with PNS. The electronic databases included China National Knowledge Internet, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, VIP, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase, were searched to collect randomized controlled trials on family-centered nursing model in the treatment of children with PNS. Fixed effect models or fixed effect models were used to analyze the outcomes. The primary outcomes were length of hospital stay and nursing satisfaction, and the second outcomes were quality of life (QoL) and behavioral problems. A total of 12 studies involving 996 pediatric patients were included, of which 500 children received family centered care and 496 children received routine care. The results showed that family centered nursing model could significantly improve the QoL of children with PNS (P < .05), increase the nursing satisfaction of family members (P < .0001, SMD = 7.37, 95%CI = 4.15-13.08), reduce the time of hospitalization (P < .0001, standard mean difference [SMD] = -2.30, 95%CI = -2.57 to -2.03), and decrease the scores of psychosomatic disorders and impulsivity hyperactivity in children with PNS (P < .0001, SMD = -3.13, 95%CI = -4.12 to -2.15; P < .0001, SMD = -3.29, 95%CI = -4.29 to -2.28). However, there was no significant statistical difference in the impact on the scores of conduct problems, learning problems, anxiety, and hyperactivity (P > .05). Family-centered nursing model can improve the QoL of children with PNS, increase the nursing satisfaction of family members and reduce the length of hospital stay, but further research need to verify its impact on behavioral problems.
