Plain English Summary
Background and study aims
Pulmonary (chest/lung) infections can have a significant psychological impact on patients, leading to increased stress, anxiety and depression. Effective nursing interventions are of great significance during clinical treatment. The concept of humanistic care refers to a novel nursing approach that emphasizes the importance of patient-centered and individualized care, with the overall goal of providing comfortable nursing. Meanwhile, meticulous nursing has been widely applied in various clinical departments and has achieved satisfactory clinical outcomes. This study is designed to explore the combined effects of these two nursing models on disease-perceived stress and self-management efficacy in patients with pulmonary infections.
Who can participate?
Patients with pulmonary infection. The observation group: 15 males and 22 females, aged 20-91 years, with a body mass index (BMI) of 16.02 to 37.79 kg/m2. The control group: 15 males and 22 females, aged 20-85 years, with a BMI of 16.22 to 33.30 kg/m2.
What does the study involve?
The control group was given nursing measures based on the concept of humanistic care, and the observation group received meticulous nursing in addition to the measures provided to the control group.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
The application of meticulous nursing combined with humanistic care in patients with pulmonary infections can improve patients’ disease perception and enhance their psychological state, alleviating their disease-perceived stress and improving their self-management efficacy.
