Insights
Integrating "Medical and Nursing Integration" with "Internet plus" life cycle management improved pediatric chronic disease care. This approach enhanced patient satisfaction, reduced hospital readmissions, and boosted healthcare professionals' career benefits.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Chronic Disease Management
- Healthcare Innovation
- Nursing Informatics
Background:
- Chronic diseases significantly impact children and their families.
- Effective management strategies are crucial for improving health outcomes and patient satisfaction.
- Healthcare professionals' career satisfaction is linked to effective patient care models.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the impact of a combined "Medical and Nursing Integration" and "Internet plus" life cycle management approach.
- To assess improvements in satisfaction and health outcomes for children with chronic diseases.
- To determine the career benefits for healthcare workers involved in this management model.
Main Methods:
- A comparative study involving pediatric patients with chronic diseases.
- Three groups were compared: "Medical and Nursing Integration" + "Internet plus" life cycle management (experimental), routine management (control 1), and "Medical and Nursing Integration" (control 2).
- Data collected included disease onset, patient satisfaction, readmission rates, and healthcare professional benefits.
Main Results:
- The experimental group showed higher overall patient satisfaction (100%) compared to control groups.
- Significantly fewer readmissions (second and third) were observed in the experimental group.
- Healthcare professionals in the experimental group reported enhanced professional benefits and identity.
Conclusions:
- "Medical and Nursing Integration" combined with "Internet plus" life cycle management effectively enhances pediatric chronic disease care.
- This integrated model improves patient outcomes and satisfaction.
- The approach positively impacts healthcare professionals' job satisfaction and career development.
Background:
We aimed to assess the effect of life-cycle management on the satisfaction and health outcomes of children with chronic diseases and their parents, as well as the career benefits of healthcare workers.
Methods:
Participants were children with chronic diseases who received long-term treatment at the Three Gorges Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing University from January 2021 to November 2022. From the first admission, compare the children's disease onset, satisfaction and professional benefits of medical staff among "Medical and Nursing Integration" + "Internet plus"-based life cycle management group (n = 221, the experimental group), the routine management group (n = 53, the control group 1) and the "Medical and Nursing Integration" group (n = 67, control group 2).
Results:
The overall satisfaction of children in the experimental group (100 %) was higher than that in the control group 1 (98.11%) and control group 2 (98.51%). The times of second admission and third admission of patients in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group 1 were (both P<0.001) and control group 2 (both P<0.01). Nurses' sense of professional benefit, professional identity, and doctor's satisfaction with nurses in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group 1 (P<0.05, P<0.01, P<0.001) and control group 2 (all P<0.05).
Conclusion:
The application of "Medical and Nursing Integration" + "Internet plus"-based life cycle management in chronic disease nursing management can effectively improve the management on pediatric chronic diseases.
