Abstract:
0bjective To explore the effects of narrative nursing on posttraumatic growth for patients with amputation. Methods From December 2016 to March 2018,a total of 62 hospitalized patients with amputation were randomly assigned into the control group and the intervention group by random number table.The control group received routine nursing,the intervention group received narrative nursing on the basis of control group.Two groups were evaluated by Posttraumatic Growth Inventory(PTGI) before and after intervention. Results Before intervention,the scores of reflections on life, personal strengths, new possibilities, relating to others, self-transformation and posttraumatic growth in the the control group were (19.87 ± 5.22), (7.90 ± 2.53), (8.83 ± 3.62), (9.73 ± 3.13), (10.63 ± 3.01), (56.97 ± 17.21) points, respectively. After intervention,the scores were (20.80±5.89), (8.80±2.17), (8.90±3.39), (10.27± 2.75), (11.07 ± 3.12), (59.83 ± 16.91) points, respectively, except new possibilities, the scores of each dimension and total scores of posttraumatic growth in the the control group were higher than before,the differences were statistically significant(t=3.00- 5.34, P<0.05).Before intervention,the scores of reflections on life, personal strengths, new possibilities, relating to others, self-transformation and posttraumatic growth in the the intervention group were (20.28±4.94), (8.17±2.58), (8.59±3.48), (9.55± 2.90), (11.07±2.83), (57.66±16.42) points, respectively. After intervention, the scores were (23.79±4.70), (10.10±2.17), (10.72±3.34), (11.69±2.22), (12.79±3.28),(69.10±14.92) points, respectively, the scores of each dimension and total scores of posttraumatic growth in the intervention group were statistically higher than those in the control group and before intervention,the differences were statistically significant (t=10.61-16.75, P<0.05). Conclusion Narrative nursing can effectively improve the level of posttraumatic growth and psychological state for patients with amputation.
