Abstract
Background: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding encompasses bleeding arising from esophageal, gastric, duodenal, or pancreaticobiliary lesions above the Treitz ligament. Research indicates a close association between improper diet and upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the application effects of individualized diet nursing combined with the modified Glasgow-Blatchford scoring system in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Design: A randomized controlled study was conducted.
Setting: The study took place at the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University.
Participants: From January 2021 to October 2022, 80 patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding were selected at our hospital. Using a random number table, they were divided into a control group and an observation group, each comprising 40 cases.
Interventions: The control group received routine nursing, while the observation group received individualized diet nursing based on the Glasgow-Blatchford score in addition to routine nursing.
Primary outcome measures: (1) bleeding frequency, hemostasis time, and hospital stay; (2) re-bleeding rate; (3) Glasgow-Blatchford scores; (4) quality of life; and (5) nursing satisfaction.
Results: In the observation group, bleeding frequency, hemostasis time, and hospital stay significantly reduced compared to the control (P < .05). Post-nursing, the observation group had a lower re-bleeding rate (χ2=11.25, P < .05). Before nursing, no statistical differences existed in Glasgow-Blatchford and quality of life scores between groups (P > .05). Post-nursing, both groups saw reduced Glasgow-Blatchford scores, more so in the observation group (P < .05). Quality of life scores increased in both, more notably in the observation group (P < .05). Overall nursing satisfaction was higher in the observation group (P < .05).
Conclusions: Individualized diet nursing, based on the Glasgow-Blatchford score, improves cure rates and quality of life and warrants promotion.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
