Objective:
To investigate the application effect of the standard operating procedure (SOP) in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE).
Methods:
The clinical data of patients admitted to respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, and geriatric departments in the hospital (November 2020-May 2021) were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients in line with the inclusion criteria were equally randomized into the observation group (OG) and the control group (CG). The CG was treated with the routine nursing, and the OG received the SOP of VTE prevention additionally. After the record of the incidence of VTE and nursing satisfaction of the two groups, scores of VTE awareness were compared.
Results:
One hundred and twenty patients were included in this study, and no obvious difference was found in the general data of patients (P > 0.05). Compared with the CG, the incidence of VTE of the OG was obviously lower (P < 0.05). After nursing, compared with the CG, scores of VTE awareness in the OG were conspicuously higher (P < 0.001), and scores of VTE awareness of the nursing staff were conspicuously higher than those before nursing (P < 0.001). Compared with the CG, nursing satisfaction of the OG was obviously higher (P < 0.001).
Conclusion:
SOP can reduce the incidence of VTE of patients, improve their disease awareness, and enhance their nursing satisfaction, which should be popularized in practice.
