Application Effect of Graded Emergency Nursing in Patients with Acute Pancreatitis.

BACKGROUND

Acute pancreatitis poses a significant threat in the emergency department due to its rapid and dangerous progression. Without timely and effective treatment measures, there is a heightened risk of advancing to multiple organ failure, posing a serious threat to the life safety of patients.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to investigate the impact of graded emergency nursing on patients with acute pancreatitis.

DESIGN

A randomized controlled experiment was conducted to assess the effectiveness of graded emergency nursing.

SETTING

The study was conducted in the Emergency Department of Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital University.

PARTICIPANTS

A total of 112 patients diagnosed with acute pancreatitis and admitted to our hospital from June 2021 to December 2022 were randomly assigned to either the observation or control group, with 56 patients in each.

INTERVENTIONS: Patients in the control group received standard emergency nursing care, while those in the observation group underwent graded emergency nursing.

PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES: The study assessed (1) triage time, waiting time, and treatment time, (2) the correct rate of diagnosis and the success rate of rescue, (3) functional status score, and (4) patient satisfaction with nursing care.

RESULTS

Compared to the control group, patients in the observation group experienced significantly shorter triage time, waiting time, and treatment time (P < .05). Additionally, the observation group exhibited higher correct rates of diagnosis and success rates of rescue (P < .05). The functional status score in the observation group showed improvement (P < .05), and patients in the observation group reported higher satisfaction with nursing care (P < .05).

CONCLUSIONS

Graded emergency nursing proves effective in reducing waiting times for diagnosis and treatment in acute pancreatitis patients, enhancing treatment success rates, and improving overall nursing quality. These findings hold valuable implications for clinical application and promotion.
