The effect of follow-nursing model in the nutritional conditions of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of follow-nursing model in the nutritional conditions of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)patients. Methods Eighty patients who underwent allo- HSCT from January 2015 to December 2016 were enrolled and divided into the observation group(40 cases)and the control group(40 cases)by random digit table.The observation group was treated with follow-nursing model, while the control group was treated with regular nursing. The Subjective Global Assessment (SGA), hematologic indexes and other body measurement indexes of the two cohorts were assessed three months later. Results The incidence of malnutrition in the observation group was 52.5%(21/40),compared to the control group with 77.5%(31/40)(χ2=4.451,P<0.05).The indexes including body mass index, triceps skin fold, arm muscle circumference, albumin, prealbumin and hemoglobin in the observation group were obviously higher than the control group with statistical significance (t=2.599-36.481, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions The follow-nursing model may improve the nutritional conditions and some other body indexes of allo-HSCT patient compared to regular nursing model.
