Abstract
Objective: To investigate the impact of pathway-based care on patients with cholelithiasis undergoing daytime cholecystectomy.
Methods: Two hundred fifty-eight patients scheduled for daytime cholecystectomy were randomly assigned to a pathway care group and a control group (129 each). The control group received standard care, while the pathway care group received additional pathway-based care to assess its effectiveness.
Results: Before surgery (T0), there were no significant differences between the groups in stress response indicators, including body temperature (T), heart rate (HR), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), and blood glucose levels (P > 0.05). Ten minutes after the onset of intraoperative pneumoperitoneum (T1), the pathway care group did not exhibit significant changes in T, HR, or blood glucose levels compared to pre-surgery values (P > 0.05), but SpO2 significantly improved (P < 0.05). In contrast, all stress response indicators in the control group worsened at T1 compared to baseline (P < 0.05). At the end of surgery (T2), the pathway care group maintained stable stress response indicators relative to baseline (P > 0.05), while the control group showed significant increases (P < 0.05). Additionally, hospitalization time in the pathway care group was significantly lower compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Comparisons of postoperative complication rates in the pathway care group revealed that the pathway care group had significantly lower incidences of abdominal pain, incisional infection, and venous thrombosis compared to the control group (P < 0.05). When comparing the postoperative quality of life (SF-36) scores, the pathway care group had higher quality of life scores than the control group (P < 0.05), as well as in scores across all dimensions (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Pathway-based care for cholecystectomy patients enhances operating room nursing quality and efficiency. It minimizes intraoperative stress response, reduces complications, and improves patient quality of life.
期刊介绍:
Patient Preference and Adherence is an international, peer reviewed, open access journal that focuses on the growing importance of patient preference and adherence throughout the therapeutic continuum. The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of reviews, original research, modeling and clinical studies across all therapeutic areas. Patient satisfaction, acceptability, quality of life, compliance, persistence and their role in developing new therapeutic modalities and compounds to optimize clinical outcomes for existing disease states are major areas of interest for the journal.
As of 1st April 2019, Patient Preference and Adherence will no longer consider meta-analyses for publication.
