ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the efficacy of a feedforward control-based intervention strategy for preventing hypothermia among trauma patients during pre-hospital emergency care.METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective analysis comparing trauma patients treated before and after implementing the intervention, with 40 cases in each group. All patients received emergency care from the Fuzhou Emergency Center on the scene. Multivariate analysis was used to explore the risk factors for hypothermia. The effective rate, incidence of adverse reactions, quality of body temperature management, medical staff's knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding mild hypothermia prevention, coagulation function, treatment time at various stages, prognosis score, and treatment situation were compared between the two groups.RESULTS:
The adverse reactions, intervention methods, and degree of cognitive improvement were influencing factors for hypothermia. The effective rate (92.50%) in the feedforward control group was higher than that in the non-feedforward control group (65.00%), with a lower incidence of adverse reactions (2.50%). The temperature management quality score of the feedforward control group (6.23±0.62) was higher. The feedforward control group achieved a higher quality score for temperature management (6.23±0.62) and exhibited a greater understanding of hypothermia prevention among trauma patients (P<0.05). Compared to the non-feedforward control group, the feedforward control group showed improved coagulation function, better performance in treatment time at each node, and higher prognosis scores.CONCLUSION:
The intervention model based on feedforward control can effectively improve the standard of pre-hospital emergency care and prevent the incidence of hypothermia in trauma patients.
