Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Operating room nursing is conducive to the smooth operation and the improvement of surgical outcomes. Clinically, evidence-based nursing (EBN) has gradually replaced routine nursing as it is tailored to meet the nursing needs of patients. This study mainly explored the effects of EBN in the operating room of the Obstetrics and Gynecology (O&G) Department on the relief of patients' adverse moods and improvement of their quality of life (QoL). METHODS: This study enrolled 174 patients, including 88 patients who received routine nursing (control group) and 86 patients treated with EBN (observation group) in the operating room of the O&G Department of our hospital. Patients were assessed for psychological status, pain, nursing satisfaction, and QoL. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, patients in the observation group showed significantly improved blood pressure and heart rate after care, as well as obviously decreased Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores. In addition, the postoperative pain in the observation group was significantly reduced compared with the control group. The nursing satisfaction was significantly higher in the observation group, as indicated by the nursing satisfaction survey. Also of note, the QoL of patients was significantly better in the observation group than that in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: While relieving patients' adverse emotions and pain, the application of EBN in the operation room of the O&G Department can improve the satisfaction of patients towards nursing and bolster their QoL.
