Evaluation on the Effect of Ward-Noise Reduction Management Combined with Monitoring-Training-Planning Management Mode in Hospitalized Patients with Heart Failure.

Abstract

Background: Noise from medical institutions such as hospitals usually exceeds the level recommended by the World Health Organization. This study aimed to explore the application effect of ward-noise reduction management combined with monitoring-training-planning (MTP) management mode in hospitalized patients with heart failure.

Materials and methods: Among the 168 research objects, 55 patients with heart failure receiving ward-noise reduction management combined with MTP management mode from April 2022 to March 2023 were included in group A, 52 patients with heart failure who underwent MTP management mode from March 2021 to March 2022 were selected as group B, and 61 patients who underwent routine management measures from March 2020 to February 2021 served as the control group. The vital signs, Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) scores, Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores, physical function indices, sleep quality score, and satisfaction degree of patients in the three groups were compared before and after management.

Results: After 1 month of management, group A had lower heart rate, diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, and respiratory rate compared to group B and the control group (P < 0.001). The SAS score, SDS score, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score after management in group A were lower than those in group B and the control group (P < 0.001). Group A had a higher 6-Minute Walk Distance than group B and the control group (P < 0.001). Group A had a higher satisfaction degree after management compared to group B (P < 0.01) and the control group (P < 0.001). Group A had lower noise level than group B and the control group (P < 0.001), and there was no significant difference in noise level between group B and the control group (P > 0.05).

Conclusion: Ward-noise reduction management combined with MTP management mode can reduce the noise level in the ward and improve the psychological state and sleep quality of patients with heart failure.
