A survey on the demands status of family members of patients during transition period in NSICU and analysis of influencing factors
Objective To investigate the demands status of needs of family members of patients in the neurosurgical intensive care unit(NSICU)during the transition period and analyze its influencing factors,so as to provide a theoretical basis for futher intervention measures.Methods A total of 115 family members of NSICU transitional patients admitted to this hospital from November 2022 to April 2023 were selected as the research objects using convenience sampling.General information questionnaire,family members'demand scale of ICU patients in transition period,and ICU discharged patient family member post-traumatic stress scale were used to investigate family members.Results The average score of 115 patients'family members'needs scale in ICU transition period was(100.17±8.38)points,which was positively correlated with the total score of family members'migration stress scale transferred from ICU,and the difference was statistically sig-nificant(P<0.05).The results of multiple factor analysis showed that whether there was care experience,the way the patient was admitted to NSICU,and the level of post-traumatic stress were the influencing factors of the demands of family members of NSICU transition period patients,and the differences were statistically sig-nificant(P<0.05).Conclusion The demand level of family members of patients in the transition period of NSICU is relatively high.Medical staff should implement individualized interventions for family members based on factors such as whether they have care experience,the way the patient was admitted to NSICU,and post-traumatic stress to reduce their level of demands.
