Effect of Protective Sleep Combined with Touch Nursing on Discomfort Symptoms and Sleep Time of Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia
Objective To study the effect of protective sleep combined with touch nursing on the discomfort symptoms and sleep time of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia(NHB).Methods A total of 80 children with NHB admitted to Dongxiang District People's Hospital from February 2021 to February 2023 were selected as the research objects.They were divided into control group(40children)and observation group(40children)by random number table method.Both groups were treated with blue light therapy and routine nursing.On this basis,the control group was given protective sleep nursing,while the observation group was given protective sleep combined with touch nursing.The jaundice index,jaundice duration,gastrointestinal function(milk intake,stool frequency),discomfort symptoms,crying time,sleep time and sleep quality were compared between the two groups.Results The jaundice index of the two groups after nursing was less than that before nursing,and the jaundice index and jaundice duration of the observation group were less than those of the control group(P<0.05).The milk intake and stool frequency of the two groups after nursing were more than those before nursing,and the milk intake and stool frequency of the observation group were more than those of the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of discomfort in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The crying time of the two groups after nursing was less than that before nursing,the sleep time was more than that before nursing,and the crying time of the observation group was less than that of the control group,the sleep time was more than that of the control group(P<0.05).The excellent and good rate of sleep quality in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Protective sleep combined with touch nursing can help to reduce the jaundice index of NHB children,improve their gastrointestinal function,shorten the duration of jaundice and crying time,and positively improve their sleep time and sleep quality.
