Effects of rapid rehabilitation nursing model on surgical site wound infection and pain of patients with ovarian cancer: A meta-analysis.

Abstract

To explore the effect of rapid rehabilitation nursing model on surgical site wound infection and pain of patients with ovarian cancer. Computer searches were performed on randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of rapid rehabilitation nursing model applied to ovarian cancer patients in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Biomedical Literature Database (SinoMed), VIP and Wanfang Database from the time each database was constructed to May 2023. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data and completed an assessment of the quality of the literature based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. The database was searched to obtain 255 articles, and 22 articles were finally included, containing 966 patients in the experimental group and 954 patients in the control group, for a total of 1920 patients. The results of the meta-analysis showed that, compared with other nursing models, the use of the rapid rehabilitation nursing model significantly reduced surgical site wound infections in patients with ovarian cancer (OR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.15-0.61, p < 0.001) and the rate of post-operative complications (OR = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.19-0.38, p < 0.001) also reduced the patients' post-operative wound pain (MD = -0.70, 95% CI: -0.85 to -0.55, p < 0.001). The rapid rehabilitation nursing model applied to patients with ovarian cancer surgery can effectively reduce the rate of post-operative complications and wound infections, and it can also reduce the post-operative wound pain.
