Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of standardized post-catheter nursing intervention on awareness rate of clinical knowledge and behavior, treatment compliance, and incidence of catheter complications in the disabled elderly.

Methods: A total of 84 elderly patients with indwelling catheters treated in our hospital from September 2019 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on different nursing methods, 39 cases treated by routine nursing intervention were included in the control group (CG), and 45 cases receiving standardized post catheter nursing intervention were assigned to the experimental group (EG). The two groups were compared in terms of the following items: awareness rate of knowledge and behavior, treatment compliance, incidence of catheter complications before and after nursing, hospitalization time, nursing satisfaction and quality of life (QOL).

Results: The EG exhibited significantly shorter hospitalization time and lower incidence of catheter complications than CG. The awareness rate of knowledge and behavior, treatment compliance and nursing satisfaction were significantly higher in the EG than in the CG. Furthermore, the QOL scores were not significantly different between CG and EG before nursing intervention, but were significantly higher in the EG than the CG after nursing intervention.

Conclusions: Standardized post-catheter nursing intervention for the disabled elderly can better enhance the awareness rate of knowledge and behavior, improve treatment compliance and QOL of patients, and reduce the incidence of catheter complications.

Keywords: Disabled elderly; catheter complications; standardized post-catheter nursing intervention; treatment compliance.
