Abstract

Objective To observe the preventive effects of nursing intervention on skin scratching and tube shedding in neonates. Methods 90 neonates in our department were selected as the study subjects and were randomly divided into control group and study group, with 45 cases in each group. Control group was given routine nursing, and study group was given nursing intervention. The incidence rates of skin scratches and catheter shedding rate after intervention were compared and analyzed. Results The incidence rate of skin scratching in study group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05), and the gastric tube shedding rate in study group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05), and the shedding rate of infusion indwelling needle in study group was slightly lower than that in control group (P>0.05). Conclusion Nursing intervention can reduce the incidence rates of skin scratches and catheter shedding in neonates, and it has obvious clinical effects, and it is worthy of application.
