Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the application of radar chart in perioperative nursing risk assessment of elderly patients with spinal fractures.Methods:Elderly patients with spinal fractures who were admitted and treated in a hospital from January 2018 to August 2019 were selected and they were divided into the control group ( n=41) and the observation group ( n=46) . In the control group, nursing routine was used for single risk assessment. Patients in the observation group filled in the self-made risk comprehensive assessment and measure sheet and drew the radar chart, which was used as the front page of the assessment in combination with each single assessment sheet. The pain scores, risk prevention and health education effects and satisfaction degree of nursing risk prevention service of patients were compared between two groups. Incidence of pressure injury, pulmonary infection, acute hypotension and complications were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results:The pain score and the incidence of nursing related complications in the observation group were lower than those in the control group while the awareness rate of risk prevention and health education knowledge were higher than those in the control group. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The application of radar chart in perioperative nursing risk assessment of elderly patients with spinal fractures can visualize multiple risks assessments, standardize pain management in elderly patients, reduce the occurrence of nursing related complications and improve the risk prevention and health education effects and nursing service satisfaction.
