Effects of Clinical Nursing Pathway Based on Evidence-based Theory on Blood Glucose Control,Lung Function,Psychological Status in Elderly Pa-tients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Combined with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Objective To study the effects of clinical nursing pathway based on evidence-based theory on blood glu-cose control,lung function and psychological status in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods A total of 125 elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus admitted to Nanjing Jiangning Hospital from April 2022 to October 2023 were selected as the study objects and were randomly divided into the observation group(n=62)and the control group(n=63)according to the envelope method.The observation group adopted the clinical nursing path based on evidence-based theory,and the control group adopted the conventional clinical nursing pathway.Blood glucose con-trol,lung function,psychological status were compared between the two groups of patients.Results After nursing,gly-cosylated hemoglobin A1c and blood glucose were decreased in both groups,and the observation group was lower than that in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).After nursing,the pulmonary function index and psychological status score of the observation group were better than those of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).Conclusion Adopting the clinical nursing pathway based on evidence-based theory for elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease combined with type 2 diabe-tes mellitus can improve the situation of blood glucose and lung function and reduce psychological pressure.
