Abstract
AIM
To observe the clinical effects of PDCA cycle-based nursing care in elderly gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients with anxiety and depression.
METHODS
Seventy-two GERD patients with anxiety and depression were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 36 cases in each group. Both groups received routine nursing care, and the observation group was additionally given PDCA cycle-based nursing care. The quality of life score, clinical symptom scores, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores and compliance were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS
SAS and SDS scores were significantly lower in both groups after nursing than before nursing (P < 0.05), and SAS and SDS scores were significantly lower in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). Clinical symptoms and quality of life scores were significantly improved in both groups after nursing (P < 0.05), and the improvement was more significant in the observation group (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, patient compliance was significantly better in the observation group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
PDCA cycle-based nursing care can improve clinical symptoms, reduce anxiety and depression, and improve patient compliance in elderly GERD patients with anxiety and depression.
