Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of doctor-nurse integration model on cognitive function and activity ability as well as risk prevention in nursing so as to provide a reference for improving quality of nursing among elderly inpatients with dementia. Methods A total of 100 elderly inpatients with dementia were recruited as study subjects. They were divided into control group (n=50, conventional nursing) and observation group (n=50, nursing based on doctor-nurse integration model) by random number table. The rehabilitation of patients of both groups after intervention was evaluated with the activities of daily living (ADL), mini-mental status examination (MMSE) and the scale of elderly cognitive function. Besides, this study also investigated the degree of satisfaction of family members with nursing care and recorded the occurrence of adverse events. Results The incidence of adverse events in the observation group (4.00%) was lower than that in the control group (18.00%) with a significant difference (χ2=5.00, P=0.02). The satisfaction of family members with nursing care was 92.0% in the observation group significantly higher than 76.0% in the control group (χ2=8.37, P< 0.01). Conclusions The doctor-nurse integration model can effectively control the risk of adverse events and improve the cognitive function and activity ability of patients as well as degree of satisfaction with nursing care.
