Effect of predictive nursing guided by root cause analysis on quality of life of patients undergoing single knee replacement surgery
Objective To explore the effect of predictive nursing guided by root cause analysis on quality of life of patients undergoing single knee replacement surgery.Methods A total of 120 patients with knee degenerative osteoarthropathy who underwent single knee joint replacement surgery in Nanjing Medical University Affiliated Nanjing Hospital from February 2022 to October 2023 were selected.According to different nursing methods,they were divided into control group and study group,with 60 cases in each group.The control group received routine perioperative nursing,and the study group received predictive nursing guided by root cause analysis for one month.Pain degree,knee function,quality of life,and complication rate were compared between the two groups.Results After seven days of nursing,the score of visual analog scoring in two groups was lower than that after one day of nursing,and the study group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).After one month of nursing,the knee joint function rating scale of New York Hospital for special surgery,and the Chinese version of the World Health Organization quality of life brief scale were higher in two groups than those before nursing,and the study group was higher than the control group(P<0.05).The total incidence of complications in the study group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Predictive nursing guided by root cause analysis can effectively reduce the postoperative pain of patients with single knee joint replacement,improve the function of the knee joint,quality of life,and reduce the incidence of complications.
