Abstract

Background: To explore the application effect of "4+1" nursing intervention in the treatment of chronic orthopaedic trauma with negative pressure vacuum sealing drainage.

Methodology: Patients before the implementation of the "4+1 nursing intervention" program were selected as the control group (60 cases). 60 patients after the implementation of the "4+1 nursing intervention" program were selected as the research group. Control group was given routine care. Research group adopted the "4+1" nursing intervention. Hamilton Depression score, wound healing time, pain visual analogue scale, treatment compliance, Self-Rating Anxiety Scale, and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.

Results: After the intervention, the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression scores in the study group were lower than those in the control group; visual analogue scale on the 3rd and 5th days after the study were lower than those in the control group, and the wound healing time was shorter than that in the control group. The treatment compliance rate and nursing satisfaction of the study group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05).

Conclusion: The application of "4 + 1" nursing intervention in treatment of orthopaedic chronic wounds has a good effect.

Keywords: Orthopedics; chronic wounds; pattern construction; vacuum sealing drainage; wound care.
