Objective:To explore the application and effect of information management in nursing of incontinence associated dermatitis (IAD) among elderly patients.Methods:From April 2019, the Cadre Department of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital carried out information management of IAD in elderly patients. Relying on the Ding Talk platform to provide nurses with information training and assessment of IAD knowledge, and to carry out information management of skin management in the elderly incontinent patients. Using before-after study, we randomly selected data of 80 elderly patients from October 2018 to March 2019 as control group, and selected data of 80 elderly incontinent patients from April to September 2019 as experimental group. We observed the incidence and time of IAD between two groups.Results:After information management, the incidence of IAD of experimental group patients was 13.75% (11/80) lower than that 33.75% (27/80) of control group with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) . The time of IAD of experimental group was (10.46±2.01) d, which was significantly later than that [ (5.47±2.29) d] of control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Information management can effectively reduce the incidence of IAD in elderly patients, delay the occurrence time and improve the nursing effect.
