Abstract
Objective To investigate the effects of systematically nursing intervention on performing upper gastrointestinal longitudinal endoscopic ultrasonography. Methods From July 2006 to August 2008, 80 patients with upper gastrointestinal disease were divided into the experimental group and the control group, with 40 patients in each group. The experimental group received mental nursing before endoscopy examination, to comfort and encourage them to eliminate the psychological tension, instructing patients to relax, turning off lights to reduce the horror resulted from seeing insertion of large visual endoscopic ultrasonography into their mouths. While the control group received standard care of gastrointestinal endoscopic examination. The horror, nausea, abrasion of laryngopharynx and repeated operation were compared in the two groups using x2 test. Results The incidence of abnormal conditions in the experimental group was lower than those of the control group. Conclusions Nursing intervention can elevate the success rate of exami-nation, reduce the suffering of patients and ensure the smooth conduct of examination.
