Application effects of discharge preparation service based on timely mode in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Objective:To observe application effects of discharge preparation service based on timely mode in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 80 elderly patients with COPD admitted to the hospital from July 2020 to August 2022.According to the random number table method,they were divided into observation group and control group,40 cases in each group.The control group received routine nursing,while the observation group received the discharge preparation service based on timely mode on the basis of that of the control group.The discharge readiness[readiness for hospital discharge scale(RHDS)]score,the caregiver care ability[family caregiver task inventory(FCTI)]score,the quality of life[generic quality of life inventory-74(GQOLI-74)]score before and after the nursing,and the nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results:The scores of RHDS dimensions such as self-status,out-of-hospital coping ability,disease knowledge and expected social support in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After the nursing,the scores of FCTI dimensions such as adjusting personal and care needs,adapting to care roles,responding and providing assistance,assessing family and community resources,and dealing with personal emotional needs in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After the nursing,the scores of GQOLI-74 dimensions such as psychological function,physical function,social function and material life status in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Further,the nursing satisfaction of the observation group was 95.00%(38/40),which was higher than 80.00%(32/40)of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusions:The discharge preparation service based on timely mode in the elderly patients with COPD can improve the discharge preparation scores,the quality of life scores and the nursing satisfaction,and reduce the caregiver care ability scores.Moreover,it is superior to the routine nursing.
