There were significant differences in the consistency of evaluation among hospitalized, post-operative and discharged patients after intervention compared with before intervention ( P< 0.0167).The consistency of assessment of team members and responsible nurses increased from 68 to 120 cases, and the consistency of assessment reached 90.91%.
