Abstract:
Objective:To compare the efficacy of Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) and the conventional care in the improvement of the prognosis and mental state of patients with chronic bone infection.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 219 patients with chronic bone infection who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of the Army Medical University from January 2018 to February 2019, including 172 males and 47 females, aged 15-65 years [(42.1±3.8)years]. Infection sites were the tibia in 144 patients and the femur in 75 patients. According to the classification of Cierny-Mader bone infection, there were 44 patients with type I (intramedullary bone infection), 57 with type II (superficial bone infection), 79 with type III (local bone infection), and 39 with type IV (diffuse bone infection). The patients were divided into conventional care group (admitted from January to July 2018, n=106) and SFBT group (admitted from August 2018 to February 2019, n=113) according to their admission time. The conventional care group received the conventional care, while the SFBT group underwent SFBT on the basis of the conventional care, with an intervention period of 6 months. The Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score, 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) for somatic, emotional, role and social function, Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) were compared between the two groups before surgery, at discharge and at 6 months after surgery. The rates of satisfaction with the nursing care and bone healing were collected at the last follow-up. Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-36 months [(24.5±6.3)months]. The differences in HSS knee score, SF-36 for somatic, emotional, role, and social function scores, SAS score, and SDS score between the two groups were not statistically significant before surgery ( P>0.05). At discharge, the HSS knee score and SF-36 for somatic, emotional, role, and social function scores of the SFBT group were (68.6±6.9)points, (23.0±1.8)points, (23.2±1.6)points, (23.4±1.5)points, and (23.1±1.8)points respectively, which were all significantly higher than those of the conventional care group [(66.3±7.2)points, (19.7±3.3)points, (20.0±2.7)points, (19.8±3.2)points, and (20.5±2.7)points respectively] ( P<0.05); The SAS and SDS scores in the SFBT group were (40.9±6.2)points and (41.1±6.2)points respectively, which were both significantly lower than those in the conventional care group [(46.4±6.3)points and (47.3±6.4)points] ( P<0.05). At 6 months after surgery, the HSS knee score and SF-36 for somatic, emotional, role, and social function scores in the SFBT group were (81.6±6.7)points, (26.3±1.6)points, (27.9±1.4)points, (26.6±1.4)points, and (27.9±1.6)points respectively, which were all significantly higher than those in the conventional care group [(78.5±7.2)points, (17.4±2.9)points, (18.7±2.5)points, (18.3±3.0)points, and (20.0±2.5)points respectively] ( P<0.05 or 0.01); the SAS and SDS scores in the SFBT group were (32.8±4.8)points and (30.8±5.5)points respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the conventional care group [(44.2±5.5)points and (42.5±6.2)points] ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up in the conventional care group and the SFBT group, the rates of satisfaction with the nursing care were 66.0% (70/106) and 88.5% (100/113) respectively ( P<0.01), and the bone healing rates were 96.2% (102/106) and 94.7% (107/113) respectively ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the conventional care, SFBT for intervention to patients with chronic bone infection is a safe and effective mental nursing model which can improve the recovery of the function and the quality of the patients′ life, reduce their anxiety and depression, and enhance their satisfaction rate.
