1Second Ward of Ophthalmology Department, Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University Nantong, Jiangsu Province, China.
Objective:
This study aimed to analyze the clinical value of applying RAID quality improvement model in closed-loop management of central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) nursing.
Methods:
Twelve ophthalmic nurses were trained. Soon afterwards, their related knowledge, operation and scene simulation test scores before and after training were examined and compared. Before and after training, 20 CRAO patients who admitted to the second ward of ophthalmology (Ophthalmology Section 2) of our hospital were included into control group and research group. The former applied routine management, while the latter employed RAID quality improvement model.
Results:
Before intervention, the ESCA scores and the time window of first-aid of the two groups had no significant difference (all P>0.05). While after intervention, the scores of the research group were dramatically improved; the self-care skills, health knowledge, self-responsibility and self-awareness were obviously higher than those of the control group (all P<0.05); the time window of first-aid in the research group was remarkably shorter than that before intervention, dramatically higher than that in the control group (32.34±8.14 vs. 49.46±8.13; P<0.05). After nursing, the overall satisfaction of patients in the research group (95.00%) was higher than that in the control group (70.00%; P<0.05). Meanwhile, compared with those before training, the examination scores of related knowledge and skills of ophthalmic nurses after training were obviously improved (all P<0.05). The incidence of complications in the research group was 5.00%, while that in the control group was 30.00%. The indexes in the research group were lower than those in the control group, with statistically remarkable differences (P<0.05).
Conclusion:
RAID quality improvement model is effective in closed-loop management of CRAO nursing, which can effectively improve the quality of nursing for specific diseases and control related indicators. Hence, it's worthy to be promoted.
