Comparison of nursing methods of pediatric epilepsy

Abstract

We evaluated a modified clinical nursing procedure applied in pediatric epilepsy treatment. A total of 120 sick children were randomly selected and evenly divided into control and observation groups. The control group was treated with a conventional epilepsy nursing protocol, while the observation group was treated with a modified clinical nursing protocol including establishment of a nursing care quality control group, designing a standardized nursing workflow using unified tables, adjusting nursing intensity according to different types of epilepsy, and extension of nursing care post-hospitalization. The clinical effects of the two groups were compared. The cure rate of epilepsy in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P less than 0.05). The duration of treatment was shortened and the incidence of complications was reduced in the observation group compared to the control group with statistical significance (P less than 0.05). The satisfaction for nursing care and treatment compliance were significantly improved in the observation group compared with controls (P less than 0.05). In conclusion, a relevant clinical nursing method can significantly enhance pediatric epilepsy therapy through improvement of nursing care quality.
