RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of comfort care on pain degree and nursing satisfaction in patients undergoing kidney stone surgery. METHODS: Altogether 107 patients undergoing kidney stone surgery were obtained as the research participants and randomly grouped into the nursing group (NG, 55 cases) and the control group (CG, 52 cases). The operation and medication modes of patients in the NG and the CG were the same. Patients in the CG were given routine care, while those in the NG were given comfort care on the basis of the CG. After intervention, the pain, mood, sleep quality, complications and nursing satisfaction of the NG and the CG were compared. RESULTS: The pain score, SAS and SDS scores of the NG were evidently lower than those of the CG, and the sleep quality was evidently better than that of the CG (P<0.05). The incidence of complications in the NG was 9.0%, which was evidently lower than that in the CG (25.0%), and the nursing satisfaction of the NG was evidently higher than that in the CG (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Comfort care can effectively relieve pain, as well as improve poor moods and the sleep quality of patients with kidney stone surgery, and as such it has a good clinical effect.
