Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the application effect of bedside evaluation of deglutition function and predictive nursing intervention on patients with dysphagia in neurology department. Methods 320 Patients with dysphagia were divided into the observation group and control group with 160 cases in each group. The observation group was given admission nursing evaluation and bedside evaluation of deglutition function while the control group only received admission nursing evaluation. The incidence of complications in each group were assessed. Results The incidence of complications such as aspiration, pulmonary infection, asphyxia and metabolic disturbance in the observation group was lower than that of the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion The bedside evaluation of deglutition function could accurately evaluate the degree of swallowing disorder and supply theoretical evidence for predictive nursing intervention by in structing clinical application of selective measures for patients with dysphagia. This could guarantee safe food intake and reductive incidence of complications of patients. So we advocated that bedside evaluation of deglutition function should be a routine admission nursing evaluation in neurology department.
