Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and compliance of quality nursing intervention in the treatment of chronic heart failure combined with respiratory tract infections.
Methods: This was a retrospective study. One hundred and twenty patients with chronic heart failure combined with respiratory tract infections were recruited at Baoding No.1 Central Hospital from June 2021 to March 2023 and randomly divided into the control group (n=60) and the experimental group (n=60). Patients in the control group were given regular specialist care on the basis of basic treatment, while those in the experimental group were given a quality care intervention model. The differences in clinical efficacy, improvement time of symptoms after treatment, etc. between the two groups were compared and analyzed.
Results: The response rate of the experimental group was 88%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (73%), with a statistically significant difference (P=0.04). The time of fever reduction, cough subsidence and lung rales disappearance in the experimental group were significantly shorter than those of the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The incidence of nursing related adverse events in the experimental group was 8%, which was lower than that of 23% in the control group, with a statistically significant difference(P=0.03).
Conclusion: Quality nursing intervention is an effective treatment for patients with chronic heart failure combined with respiratory infections, boasting a variety of benefits such as reduced nursing risk, improved quality of nursing, and increased patient compliance and satisfaction. It contributes to rapid symptom improvement and significant clinical efficacy.
