Effect of cluster nursing by group focus interviewing on postoperative infections in children patients after ventricular-abdominal shunt / 现代临床护理

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of the perioperative cluster nursing on the postoperative infections in children patients after ventriculo-peritoneal shunt. Methods 92 patients with hydrocephalus from January 2016 to March 2017 in our hospital were included in the study.The control group who hospitalize from January to June 2016 were managed with routine nursing during the perioperative period.After the implementation,the cluster nursing measures constructed by the focus group interviews were added in the intervention group who hospitalized from July 2016 to March 2017. Results Compared with the pre-implementation,the positive rate of PCT was insignificantly different on days 2 and 4 after the operation (P>0.05).However the difference was statistically significant on the 6th day (P<0.05),the postoperative infection rate significantly lower than that of the control group and so it was with the hospital stay. Conclusion The cluster nursing by focus group interviews can lower the infectious rate and shorten the hospital stay,worthy of clinical promotion.
