ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of precautionary rescue nursing intervention on the nursing quality score and efficacy of rescue for neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. Methods One hundred children with neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy admitted to the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2017 to December 2018 were enrolled. Fifty children from January to December 2017 were assigned in the routine rescue nursing group; and 50 children from January to December 2018 were in the precautionary rescue nursing group. The routine rescue nursing group received routine rescue nursing; and the precautionary rescue nursing group was given pre-planned rescue nursing intervention. The rescue success rate, rescue time, Apgar score within rescue for 5 minutes, poor prognosis, etc. were recorded in both groups; the infant intelligence development scale was used to evaluate the situation of children's development of IQ in 6 months; a self-made questionnaire was used to investigate the rate of satisfaction in 100 children family guardians; the hospital's self-made Nursing Quality Assessment Form was applied to assess the quality of care of nursing staff. Results The rescue successful rate and the 5-minute Apgar score of the precautionary rescue nursing group were significantly higher than those of the routine rescue nursing group [rescue success rate: 98.0% (49/50) vs. 72.0% (36/50), Apgar score: 8.43±1.28 vs. 5.74±1.39], and the rescue time and poor prognosis rate were significantly lower than those in the routine rescue nursing group [rescue time (minutes):3.18±1.20 vs. 6.78±2.23, poor prognosis rate: 2.0% (1/50) vs. 14.0% (7/50), both P < 0.05]. The 6-month intelligence index and psychomotor index in the precautionary rescue nursing group were significantly higher than those in the routine rescue nursing group (intelligence index scores: 96.43±5.85 vs. 85.40±8.90, psychomotor index scores:97.38±4.03 vs. 78.43±10.22, both P < 0.05). The satisfaction rate in precautionary rescue nursing group was obviously higher than that in the routine rescue nursing group [92.0% (46/50) vs. 76.0% (38/50), P < 0.05]; the rescue technology, rescue efficiency, rescue effect, humanistic care score in precautionary rescue nursing group were significantly higher than those in the routine rescue nursing group (8.12±0.89 vs. 2.74±1.02, 8.23±1.24 vs. 3.01±0.83, 7.80±1.33 vs. 3.44±1.25, 8.03±1.32 vs. 3.29±1.38, respectively all P < 0.05). Conclusion The precautionary rescue nursing intervention used for neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy can significantly improve the rescue effect, degree of satisfaction to nursing and the quality of nursing care, so that it is worthy to be applied clinically.
