Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the evidence-based practice of prevention and care of nasal and facial pressure injuries in patients with non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) using the knowledge to action framework (KTA), and to explore its effectiveness.Methods:Using an evidence-based nursing approach, an evidence-based practice group was established to formulate a clinical problem, the literature from domestic and international databases were researched for relevant evidence, the evidence was introduced into clinical scenarios, an evidence-based practice plan was developed, and a strategy for applying the best evidence was constructed by conducting a baseline review of healthcare professionals and patients with NPPV, analyzing barriers and promoting factors, and making changes in clinical practice at the organizational level, the practitioner level, and the patient level. Purposive sampling method was used to select the healthcare staff of the cardiac surgical intensive care unit (CSICU) of the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University, as well as the patients with NPPV admitted from October 1 to November 15, 2023 (pre-evidence-based practice) and November 16 to December 31 (post-evidence-based practice), as the subjects of the study. Through questionnaire analysis, the incidence of nasal and facial pressure injury of NPPV patients, the implementation rate of review indicators of medical staff, the score of the knowledge, belief and conduct of medical staff, and the compliance and comfort of patients before and after evidence-based practice were compared.Results:A total of 52 medical staff were included, aged (28.54±6.50) years old, with 3.00 (1.00, 12.75) years of working experience; 2 doctoral degree holders (3.85%), 4 master degree holders (7.69%), 46 bachelor degree holders (88.46%); 2 with senior title (3.85%), 17 with intermediate title (32.69%), and 33 junior titles (63.46%). Fifty patient questionnaires were collected before and after evidence-based nursing practice; the differences between before and after evidence-based practice in terms of gender, age, body weight, duration of ventilator usage, 24-hour bleeding and total bleeding were not statistically significant and were comparable. Compared with the pre-evidence-based practice, after carrying out the corresponding evidence-based nursing practice, the incidence of nasal and facial pressure injuries of NPPV patients decreased from 16.00% (8/50) to 4.00% (2/50, P < 0.05), the total implementation rate of review indicators of medical staff increased from 79.73% to 94.08% ( P < 0.01), and the total scores of knowledge, belief and conduct were significantly improved (141.96±13.88 vs. 114.65±19.72, P < 0.05), and compliance and comfort of patients were significantly improved (compliance score: 4.60±0.99 vs. 5.82±1.42, comfort score: 4.10±1.63 vs. 6.92±2.33, both P < 0.05]. Conclusion:The application of an evidence-based nursing approach to obtain evidence related to the prevention of nasal and facial pressure injuries in patients with NPPV can be used to guide clinical practice, significantly reducing the incidence of nasal and facial pressure injuries in such patients, improving the implementation rate of review indicators and the knowledge, belief, and conduct scores of medical staff, and enhancing compliance and comfort of NPPV patients.
