Abstract

Abstract : Objective . To analyze the clinical effect of visual electrophysiological examination combined with targeted health education nursing in children. Methods . A total of 100 children who underwent visual electrophysiological examinations in the Ophthalmology Department of our hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were selected as the study subjects. The children were randomly divided into two groups, the control group and the observation group, with 50 children in each group. Children in the control group received routine nursing, while those in the observation group received a combination of routine nursing and targeted health education nursing. The nursing satisfaction, degree of cooperation with examination, examination time, changes in the psychological state, and the stress response of the children and their families were then compared and analyzed. Results. The nursing satisfaction of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (94.0% vs. 80.0%) (P < 0.05 ). The degree to which children in the observation group cooperated with examination was higher than that of children in the control group (96.0% vs. 78.0%) (P < 0.05 ). The average time spent on VEP and ERG examinations by children in the observation group was 6.33 ± 1.37 hours and 55.25 ± 4.92 hours, respectively, significantly lower than that of 12.45 ± 1.02 hours and 70.36 ± 5.31 hours, respectively, spent by children in the control group (P < 0.05 ). After intervention, the depression, hostility, anxiety, and obsession scores of children in the observation group were all significantly lower than those of children in the control group (P < 0.05 ). There was an increase in the heart rate, respiratory rate, and mean arterial pressure in children from both groups, but the magnitude of increase in the observation group was much smaller than that in the control group (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion . The combination of visual electrophysiological examination and targeted health education nursing in children has a remarkable clinical effect. It improves the children's degree of comfort as well as the parents' degree of satisfaction. It also reduces the time spent on examinations, facilitates the smooth completion of examinations, and improves the efficiency of examinations. This nursing method is one that merits more widespread promotion and clinical application.
