Abstract
Background: Cardiac surgery is a complex, high-risk procedure that necessitates specialized nursing care in the operating room (OR). Nursing intervention management is vital in ensuring patient safety and optimizing outcomes. This meta-analysis aims to assess the effectiveness of nursing intervention management in the OR for patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Methods: A systematic search was conducted on PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Internet, and Wanfang databases to identify relevant studies published from January 1998 to March 2023. The inclusion criteria were studies that were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-RCTs and compared the efficacy of nursing intervention management in the OR for patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The primary outcome was postoperative adverse events. The secondary outcome was length of hospital stays. intraoperative blood loss; ICU length of stay; duration of surgery. Results: This systematic review and meta-analysis showed that operating room nursing can reduce the occurrence of postoperative adverse events in patients undergoing cardiac surgery [risk ratio (RR) = 0.30, 95% CI: (0.20, 0.45)]. At the same time, it could reduce the length of hospital stays of patients [Mean Deviation (MD) = –5.32, 95% CI: (–6.03, –4.60)]; intraoperative blood loss [MD= –179.70, 95% CI :(–211.02, –148.39)]; ICU length of stay [MD = –5.85, 95% CI: (–10.39, –1.31)]; duration of surgery [MD= –19.77, 95% CI: (–22.73, –16.81)]. Conclusions: Nursing intervention management in the OR is effective in improving outcomes and patient satisfaction for individuals undergoing cardiac surgery.
