Abstract:
Objective Through application of clinical pathway in hospitalization patients undergoing uterectomy, we aimed to study the efficacy of clinical pathway in uterectomy patients. Methods 120 patients randomly sampled into the experimental group and the control group with 60 in each. The experimental group received diagnosis, treatment, nursing and rehabilitation according to the clinical pathway table, patients in the control group received routine nursing interventions. The average hospitalization days, medical costs, patient satisfaction degree, disease cognition, first exercise time after operation and medical disputes were compared between the two groups. Results The average hospitalization days and hospitalization costs of the experimental group were obviously lower than those in the control group, patients' satisfaction degree, knowledge of health and first functional exercise time in the experimental group were better than those of the control group, while the medical disputes in the experimental group were obviously de -creased in the experimental group. Conclusions Application of clinical pathway in nursing care for uterectomy patients can effectively decrease hospitalization days, medical costs and disputes. It is also helpful for patients to cooperate with doctors in diagnosis, treatment, nursing, thus increase the satisfaction degree of patients, ensure the reasonable use of medical resources and promote the sustainable improvement of nursing quality.
