The patients self-management, hope, catheter-related complications and unplanned extubation were compared between the two groups. Results The score of self-management and hope in the treatment group were(144.55±8.27),(38.28±3.18)points,while the score in the control group were (137.08 ± 6.47), (38.34 ± 4.60) points, which had the statistically difference in the score of self-management (t=-5.712, P<0.01). The incidence of catheter-related complications and unplanned extubation in the treatment group were 9.2%(6/65) and 1.5%(1/65), while the incidence in the control group were 29.7%(19/64) and 10.9%(7/64), which had the statistically difference (χ2=8.637, 4.898, P<0.01 or 0.05).
