Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of application of self-made assessment card for spinal nerve motor function in clinical nursing.Methods An assessment card for spinal nerve motor function was designed and produced according to "spinal cord injury grading standards" by American Spinal Injury Association(ASIA).A total of 40 nurses working in orthopedic ward of our hospital were selected as study subjects,and divided into the experimental group and the control group with 20 nurses in each group.Theoretical and practical training regarding spinal nerve motor function was provided to nurses in both groups.Then totally 398 patieuts with spine or spinal cord diseases hospitalized in our orthopedic ward were recruited from June to September 2016 as subjects for assessment.The experimental group used self-made assessment card for spinal nerve motor function as guidance;the control group performed routine assessment for spinal nerve motor function.Results There were no significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in scores of theoretical and practical examinations (P>0.05);compared with the control group,the error of assessment in the experimental group was reduced by 9.5%,missed assessment rate decreased by 16.2%;and the time for assessnent in the experimental group was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The assessment card for spinal nerve motor function can reduce the error of assessment,save the time for assessment,enhance the capacity of specialist nurses and improve work efficiency.
