ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of continue nursing care post-discharge on the treatment effectiveness of gastric ulcer in active phase, and to facilitate the nursing quality. Methods A total of 163 patients with gastric ulcer were divided into control group including 80 cases and observation group including 83 cases randomly by hospitalization order. Routine nursing care was administrated on the two groups of patient's duration of hospital stay equally, but continue nursing care was administrated on the observation group patients exceptionally. The treatment outcome and intervention effect of the two groups were compared at the end of study. Results The overall cure rates of the control the observation group patients were 63.75%(30/80) and 81.93%(68/83), the eradication rates of helicobacter pylori (Hp) were 86.25%(69/80) and 96.39%(80/83), the medication compliance scores of Morisky were 3.69 ± 1.34 and 6.71 ± 1.57, the quality scores of life instruments for chronic were 67.81 ± 7.10 and 86.34 ± 6.83 respectively at the end of follow-up period. There were significant differences in the above indicators (χ2=6.830,5.330,t=13.199,16.977,P<0.05 or 0.01). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cure period of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (χ2=20.446,P<0.05). Conclusions The continue nursing care post-discharge has positive effect on the treatment of active gastric ulcer, and it should be recommended in clinical application.
