Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of evidence-based nursing on oral ulcer of leukemia patients undergoing chemotherapy. Methods A total of 60 leukemia patients in our hospital from January 2014 to October 2014 were enrolled as observation group, and given evidence-based nursing intervention including health education, pH adjustment of mouth, mouthwash by ice water, and oral ulcer nursing according to the degree. Clinical data of 60 leukemia patients from April to December 2013 before the implementation of evidence-based nursing( control group) was retrospectively analyzed and the incidence rate and recovery of oral ulcer were compared. Results The incidence rate of oral ulcer in observation group (21. 67%, 13/60) was lower than that in the control group (60. 00%,36/60) (χ2 =5. 964,P<0. 05); the healing time of oral ulcer in the observation group (4.23 ±2.14)d was shorter than that in the control group (7.15 ±2.44)d (t =4. 614,P<0. 05). Conclusions Taking evidence-based nursing in leukemia patients can promote the quality of nursing care, reduce the incidence of oral ulcer, and improve the rehabilitation effect.
