Abstract:
Objective:To apply the best evidence of hypoglycemia management for neonates delivered by mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in clinical practice and evaluate its curative effects.Methods:This study was a historical controlled study. The newborns delivered by GDM mothers who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of a Class A hospital in Hefei from February to December 2019 were selected as the research objects by convenient sampling. Newborns delivered by GDM mothers admitted to the hospital during the application of evidence-based practice were the subjects of the pre-evidence study ( n=53) , and newborns delivered by GDM mothers admitted to the hospital after applying the evidence-based practice from September to December 2019 were used as evidence Post-application research subjects ( n=59) . Evidence-based nursing was used to obtain best evidence. Based on the evidence-based continuous quality improvement model as the theoretical framework, the evidence-based practice plan for neonatal hypoglycemia management of gestational diabetes mothers during delivery was constructed and applied. Before and after the application of evidence-based practice, 63 neonatal nurses and parents of neonates were surveyed with the self-made GDM Mothers' Newborn Hypoglycemia Management Questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Uncertainty of the Disease Parents Scale, respectively. And the changes in the incidence of hypoglycemia within 2 hours after birth was compared before and after the application of evidence-based practice. Results:A total of 7 pieces of evidence were used in the evidence-based practice. After the application of the evidence-based practice, the incidence of hypoglycemia in neonates delivered by mothers with gestational diabetes within 2 hours after birth decreased from 20.8% (11/53) to 3.4% (2/59) , and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=8.206, P<0.05) . The score of the questionnaire on knowledge of hypoglycemia management of neonates delivered by mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus in 63 department nurses was increased from (7.00±1.43) to (7.84±1.18) , and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-12.253, P<0.05) . Before and after the application of evidence-based practice, scores of Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale for newborn parents were respectively 87.00 (65.00, 99.50) and 59.00 (43.00, 74.00) , and the difference was statistically significant ( U=728.500, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Evidence-based practice for blood glucose management of newborns delivered by gestational diabetic mothers can reduce the incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia and the uncertainty of their parents' diseases, improve nurses' neonatal hypoglycemia management level, and promote continuous improvement of nursing quality.
