Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of disposable infusion set for bladder washout in elderly patients with long-term urinary canal placement and improve the nursing quality.Methods Fifty-two elderly patients with long-term urinary canal placement were randomly divided into experimental group and control group.In the experimental group,disposable infusion sets were used to connect the rinsing solution and the urinary canal to accomplish bladder washout.On the contrary,routine method was used to do the bladder washout in the control group.The urine bacterial culture,comfortability of the patients,and the operating time by the nurses were compared between two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the urine bacterial culture between the experimental and the control group (P =0.500 ). The comfortability of the experimental group (92.31％) was significant better than that of the control group (65.38％),the difference was statistically significant (P =0.019).There was also significantly less operating time by the nurses for the experimental group (8.7 ±0.5 )min than the control group (13.5 ± 0.3)rin,the difference was statistically significant (t =41.97,P ＜0.0 1 ).Conclusions The disposable infusion set for bladder washout is simple and easy to operate and is suitable for both at home and in medical caring.
