Abstract

Objective To evaluate the application and effects of mind map in nursing handover. Methods Two wards which had similar scale, environment, property and level of nursing were randomly chosen as the experimental group and the control group by tossing a coin in Tianjin Hospital of ITCWM Nankai Hospital, 28 nurses were selected in each group, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, control group takes routine handover, the experimental group takes handover by following the guidance of mind map. The mind map of clear mind were designned. The Chinese version of Handover Evaluation Scale was used to evaluate the effects of mind map in the nursing handover, the inpatients’ satisfaction was compared between the experimental group and the control group after the application of min-d map. Results After3-month intervention, results showed that the score of handover evaluation scale in the experimental group were (31.39±1.34) points, (19.57±1.23) points, (17.61±1.29) points, (68.57±2.49) point, the score of handover evaluation scale in the control group were (26.71±1.24) points,(18.71±1.33) points,(16.68±1.33) points, (62.11±2.94) points, the difference was statistically significant(t=2.504-13.530, P<0.05); in the experimental group, the score of handover evaluation scale increased significantly than that before intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (t=-17.450--5.663, P<0.05); the inpatients′ satisfaction in the experimental group was 98.89%(89/90), the control group was 90%(81/90) after intervention, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=6.776, P<0.05); in the experimental group, the inpatients′ satisfaction was better than that before intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.211, P<0.05). Conclusion: The application of mind map in the n-ursing handover can improve the level of nursing handover and the quality of nursing care, contributing to dveloping high quality of nursing service. Key words: Mind map; Nursing handover; Effect analysis
