Objective:
We assessed the effects of humanized nursing on perioperative glaucoma patients under local anesthesia and their sleep quality.
Methods:
Fifty glaucoma patients who underwent surgery under local anesthesia from January 2018 to January 2020 were enrolled and randomly divided into 2 groups (N=25). The control group received routine nursing care whereas the observation group underwent humanized nursing care. We compared negative emotion scores, treatment compliance, incidence of postoperative complications, comfort score, sleep quality score, and nursing satisfaction.
Results:
After nursing, the observation group had lower SAS and SDS scores than the control group (p < .05). The total treatment compliance rate was higher in the observation group than that in the control group (96.0% vs 72.0%, p < .05). The observation group had a lower incidence rate of postoperative complications than the control group (4.0% vs 24.0%, p < .05). After nursing, the observation group exhibited an increased GCQ score and a decreased PSQI score compared to the control group (p < .05). The total satisfaction rate of nursing was higher in the observation group than that in the control group (96.0% vs 76.0%, p < .05).
Conclusion:
Humanized nursing for glaucoma patients during the perioperative period under local anesthesia is able to relieve the negative emotion of patients and enhance their treatment compliance, which is conducive to reducing postoperative complications, increasing physical comfort level, and ameliorating sleep quality, thereby improving nursing satisfaction by patients.
