Methods Retrospective analysis was carried out in 555 children with foreign body in respiratory tract from February 2005 to December 2007, who were divided into the control group (271 cases) and the experimental group (284 cases). The experimental group was given managed with standardized clinical pathway,the control group received routine management. The preoperative preparation time, average hospital stay, cost of hospitalization, the extent of mastering of health knowledge by patients'par-ents were observed and the data underwent χ2 and t test. Results All patients of the two groups were cured and no nursing complications happened.The mean preoperative preparation time of the experimental group was 10 hours, which was shorter than that of the control group(27 hours). The average length of hospital stay of the experimental group was (4.13 + 0.81)days, which was shorter than that of the control group ,(6.03 + 1.30) days.The average hospitalization cost of the experimental group was (3498.55 + 269.13) yuan, while the control group was(4246.40 + 977.10) yuan. The extent of mastering of health knowledge by patients' parents, including basic knowledge of the disease, preoperative cooperation knowledge,prevention knowledge and diet knowledge, was superior to that of the control group. Conchusions The establishment of clinical pathway of children with foreign body is conducive to the standardized treatment of the disease, it can shorten the preoperative prepara-tion time, improve the capability of emergency treatment, shorten the length of hospital stay, reducing hospital-ization costs, increase the extent of mastering of health knowledge by patients and their families.
