Objective To observe the application effect of multidisciplinary integrated nursing model in the practice of intravenous therapy.
Methods A total of 162 cancer patients were selected as the research objects, and they were randomly divided into observation group (n=79) and control group (n=83). The control group was treated with routine nursing, while the observation group was treated with multidisciplinary integrated nursing model led by specialized nurses on the basis of the control group. The incidence of complications associated with intravenous infusion therapy, the selection and standardization of the usage of infusion tools as well as the patient's satisfaction degree were compared between the two groups.
Results There were 12 cases with complications in the control group, with an incidence rate of 15.19%; there were 2 cases with complications in the observation group, with an incidence rate of 2.41%; the incidence rate of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.01). In selection of infusion tools, there were 15 cases with non-standard selection in the control group (including 5 cases with non-standard selection of scalp needle and 10 cases with non-standard selection of indwelling needle) and 2 cases with non-standard selection in the observation group (non-standard selection of indwelling needle); in standardized use of infusion tools, there were 18 cases with non-standard use in the control group (including 5 cases of puncture site selection, 5 cases of catheter disinfection and maintenance, 4 cases of applicationand fixation problems, 3 cases of flushing and sealing tube problems, and 1 case of tape use) and 4 cases with non-standard use in the observation group (including 1 case of puncture site selection, 1 case of application and fixation problem, 1 case of flushing and sealing tube problem, and 1 case of catheter disinfection and maintenance); there were significant differences in the selection and standardized use of infusiontools between the two groups (P < 0.01). The score of satisfaction degree in the observation group was (96.88±2.51), which was significantly higher than (92.28±7.39) in the control group (P < 0.01).
Conclusion The multidisciplinary integrated nursing model helps to prevent and treat complications of intravenous therapy, improve patient's satisfaction degree, and ensure the quality of nursing for intravenous therapy.
