Pain management effect of quality control circle mode on patients with lower limb fractures / 中华创伤杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the pain management effects between painless wards with quality control circle mode and conventional pain management mode.Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted on the clinical data of 233 patients with lower limb fracture admitted from August 2015 to August 2016.There were 124 males and 109 females,aged 18-74 years [(48.3 ±3.3)years].The patients were divided into observation group (n =117) and control group (n =116) according to the pain management mode.The observation group followed the standard continuous quality improvement program and combined with professional team and patients Wechat group to implement pain management,and further measures were taken in accordance with the feedbacks.The control group adopted routine painless ward nursing model for perioperative analgesia nursing intervention.The pain score VAS,the start time of functional exercise,the compliance of rehabilitation activities,the length of hospital stay,and the healing time of fracture were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups at 12 hours before operation and 6 hours after operation (P ＞ 0.05).The observation group had lower VAS scores at 12 hours (3.2± 1.4),24 hours (2.8 ±0.9),48 hours (1.6 ± 0.7),and 72 hours (1.5 ± 0.8) after operation than the control group (P ＜0.05).The observation group started functional exercises earlier [(18.9 ± 0.4) hours after operation]than the control group earlier [(48.1 ± 1.7) hours after operation] (P ＜ 0.01).The observation group had a rehabilitation compliance rate of 62.6％,higher than that of the control group (17.6％) (P ＜0.05).The hospital stay [(12.18 ± 0.14) days] and fracture healing time [(97.86 ± 0.83) days] of the observation group were shorter than those of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The pain management model of standardized continuous quality improvement can significantly relieve pain in patients with lower limb fracture,shorten hospitalization time,bring forward the start time of functional exercise,improve the compliance of rehabilitation activities,and promote fracture healing.
