Objective To explore the effect of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine nursing on the improvement of blood glucose level and psychological status of patients with diabetic nephropathy.Methods Eighty patients with diabetic nephropathy admitted to the Binzhou Medical University Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were included in the study,and their general data were retrospectively analyzed.According to different nursing methods,the patients were divided into a control group(40 cases)and an observation group(40 cases).The patients in the control group and the observation group received routine care and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine nursing for 2 weeks,respectively.The blood glucose control,psychological status and quality of life of the two groups were compared.Results Before nursing,there were no statistically significant differences in fasting blood glucose levels,2-hour postprandial blood glucose levels,glycosylated hemoglobin levels,Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)scores,Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)scores,and World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF Scale(WHOQOL-BREF)scores between the two groups(all P>0.05).After 2 weeks of nursing,compared with the control group,the observation group had lower levels of the above blood glucose indicators,as well as lower SAS scores,and SDS scores.At the same time,the observation group had higher WHOQOL-BREF scores in all dimensions(all P<0.05).Conclusion Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine nursing can reduce the blood glucose level of patients with diabetic nephropathy and improve their psychological status and quality of life.
