Effect of Continuous Nursing on Postoperative Complications and Quality of Life in Patients Undergoing Small Incision Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Objective To explore the effect of continuous nursing on postoperative complications and quality of life of patients with small incision coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG).Methods Sixty patients with coronary heart disease who underwent small incision CABG in Tianjin Chest Hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected and divided into control group(30 patients)and observation group(30 patients)by random number table method.The control group was given routine nursing,and the observation group was given continuous nursing on the basis of routine nursing.The postoperative pain Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),analgesic dosage,ambulation time,hospitalization time,Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA),Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)score,complications and quality of life[the MOS item short from health survey(SF-36)score]were compared between the two groups.Results The postoperative VAS and analgesic drug use in the observation group were less than those in the control group,and the time of getting out of bed and hospitalization were shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).The HAMA and HAMD scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,and the SF-36 scores were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Continuous nursing is helpful to reduce the degree of postoperative pain in patients with small incision CABG,reduce the use of analgesic drugs,speed up their postoperative rehabilitation,alleviate the negative emotions of patients,reduce the risk of postoperative complications,and improve the quality of life.
