Abstract:
Objective:To establish a scientific and standardized routine for perioperative nursing in pediatric otolaryngology, reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium, and improve the quality of postoperative recovery by implementing the best practice of evaluation and intervention of postoperative delirium in pediatric otolaryngology.Methods:By reviewing literature related to evaluation, prevention, intervention and management of postoperative delirium in pediatric otolaryngology from March 2018 to September 2019, fourteen best practice were concluded. By combining the best evidence and the clinical circumstances, the evidenced-based criteria were established and then applied in the Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery Department, the Children ′s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine. Results:After three rounds of reviews, the results showed that the criteria 2, 3, 6, and 8 had 100.0% complacence. Comparison of before and after applying the evidence, there was no statistically significant difference for the occurrence of postoperative delirium or pain ( P>0.05); there was a statistically significant reduction of pain score at 60 minutes after returning to the ward ( χ2=9.93, P<0.05); there was a statistically significant reduction of preoperative anxiety score of children ′s family members from (33.36 ± 6.84) points to (29.54 ± 6.94) points ( F=6.33, P<0.05); there was a statistically significant increase of doctors ′ score of delirium knowledge based on evidence from (23.00 ± 3.94) points to (33.43 ± 8.25) points ( t=-3.02, P<0.05); and there was a statistically significant increase of nurses ′ score of delirium knowledge based on evidence from (33.11 ± 8.46) points to (57.79 ± 6.58) points ( t=-10.35, P<0.05) when the evidence was applied. Conclusion:The evidence-based practice didn ′t significantly relieve the postoperative delirium in pediatric otolaryngology, but it was helpful to relieve the postoperative pain level of children and the anxiety level of their families. The management of postoperative delirium in pediatric otolaryngology needs to be further explored.
