Abstract
Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) pose significant challenges in obstetric nursing, affecting maternal and neonatal safety.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of comprehensive strategies for preventing SSIs in obstetric nursing.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 200 obstetric surgical patients from January 2018 to December 2022. The observation group received comprehensive SSI prevention strategies and the control group received routine nursing care.
Results: The observation group had a significantly lower SSIs rate (3.0% vs 10.0%, P = .045), fewer complications (1.0% vs 7.0%, P = .028), better incision healing (98.0% vs 91.0%, P = .028), fewer adverse events (4.0% vs 13.0%, P = .022), and lower pain scores on postoperative days 1 and 2.
Conclusion: Implementing comprehensive SSI prevention strategies in obstetric nursing significantly reduces SSIs, complications, and pain, while enhancing wound healing and recovery.
背景:手术部位感染(ssi)对产科护理构成重大挑战,影响孕产妇和新生儿的安全。目的:本研究旨在评估产科护理中预防ssi的综合策略的有效性。方法:对2018年1月至2022年12月200例产科手术患者进行回顾性分析。观察组给予综合的SSI预防策略,对照组给予常规护理。结果:观察组ssi发生率(3.0% vs 10.0%, P = 0.045)、并发症(1.0% vs 7.0%, P = 0.028)、切口愈合(98.0% vs 91.0%, P = 0.028)、不良事件(4.0% vs 13.0%, P = 0.022)、术后第1、2天疼痛评分均较低。结论:在产科护理中实施全面的预防SSI策略,可显著减少SSI、并发症和疼痛,同时促进伤口愈合和恢复。
期刊介绍:
Journal of Nursing Care Quality (JNCQ) is a peer-reviewed journal that provides practicing nurses as well as nurses who have leadership roles in nursing care quality programs with useful information regarding the application of quality principles and concepts in the practice setting. The journal offers a forum for the scholarly discussion of “real world” implementation of quality activities.
