Objective To observe the application effect of a quantitative nursing management program in the operating room constructed based on risk assessment strategies for patients with osteochondroma.

Methods Thirty patients who underwent osteochondroma surgery from July 2021 to June 2022 at Suqian Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University were set as control group (receiving conventional nursing management), and 30 patients who underwent osteochondroma surgery from July 2022 to June 2023 were set as study group (receiving quantitative nursing management centered on risk assessment strategies). The perioperative indicators, psychological stress status, self-care ability, quality of life, and complication occurrence were compared between the two groups.

Results The recovery time of gastrointestinal function, postoperative anal exhaust time, and hospital stay in the study group were (0.72±0.12), (1.71±0.32), and (21.32±3.47) days, respectively, which were shorter than (1.04±0.28), (2.02±0.42), and (28.02±4.02) days in the control group (P < 0.05). After nursing, the scores of the Self-rating Depression Scale and Self-rating Anxiety Scale in the study group were (36.87±5.64) and (32.42±6.82), respectively, which were lower than those (45.24±6.32) and (48.33±6.56) in the control group (P < 0.05). After nursing, the total scores of the Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA) and SF-36 Scale in the study group were (142.87±15.62) and (86.42±7.28), respectively, which were higher than (125.42±16.32) and (78.33±8.56) in the control group (P < 0.05). The total complication rate in the study group was 6.67%, which was lower than 26.67% in the control group (P < 0.05).

Conclusion The quantitative nursing management program in the operating room constructed centered on risk assessment strategies can effectively improve the postoperative recovery effect of patients with osteochondroma, relieve psychological stress responses, enhance self-care ability and quality of life, and reduce the occurrence of complications.
