RESUMEN
Objective To explore the effect of mobile internet management in continuing nursing care of premature infants. Methods The convenience sampling method was adopted to divide the premature infants from January to December in the year 2015 into 2 groups according to the time order, the control group (n = 56), and the observation group (n = 57). The control group received continuing nursing care for the whole course from admission to discharge. Based on the nursing care of the control group, the observation group were given an extra continuing nursing care by using the mobile internet. Both group's continuing nursing care were lasted from the birth till 12 month.Comparisons of two groups were made from the following aspects: of preterm infants born at 12 months in the length, weight, head circumference of the preterm infants at 12 months old and 40 weeks corrected gestational age Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment,breastfeeding confidence;parents care knowledge scores at the time of admission, discharge and 1month after discharge; referral rate; parents satisfaction at the time of discharge and the end of extended care). Results In the observation group,the length,weight and head circumference of the preterm infants at birth were(74.10 ± 2.66)cm,(8.70 ± 1.43)kg,(45.40 ± 1.38)cm, Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment at 40 weeks of gestation,self-confidence in breastfeeding,1 post-discharge and 1 post-discharge parents care knowledge score of the month, parents of preterm children satisfaction scores, respectively(37.30 ± 3.22),(120.31 ± 13.65),(82.28 ± 3.99, 96.70 ± 2.28), (93.55±2.91,96.61±2.37),the control group were(73.20±2.80)cm,(8.44±1.02)kg,(44.2±1.40)cm, (36.00±2.87),(114.54±12.21),(80.66±3.51, 95.02±3.87),(92.57±2.41, 95.72±2.02). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t=-5.244~-2.014,all P<0.05). Conclusions The mobile internet application of continuing nursing care in premature infants can improve the growth and development of premature infants and maternal breastfeeding confidence,promote parents care knowledge, referral rate and satisfaction,thus guarantee the he living quality of the preterm infants.
