The Influence of Systematic Psychological Intervention on Patients Undergoing VSD Drainage Surgery for Chronic Infected Wounds
The Influence of Systematic Psychological Intervention on Patients Undergoing VSD Drainage Surgery for Chronic Infected Wounds
This study focuses on providing clinical care to patients undergoing VSD drainage surgery for chronic wounds, while also paying attention to the impact of negative emotions such as depression and anxiety, as well as quality of life and social support, on the patients' physical and mental well-being. It observes the influence of psychology on patients.
The chronic, difficult-to-heal wounds not recovering within the expected timeframe not only impact the quality of life for patients and hinder the recovery of the primary condition but also exacerbate their financial and psychological burdens, further affecting the quality of wound healing. The objective of this study is to employ psychological nursing interventions effectively combined with nursing techniques and communication strategies. By listening to patients' fears, anxieties, and tensions, it significantly alleviates their negative emotions, enhances compliance with medical advice, and predicts postoperative complications to mitigate them. Tailored and empathetic care, along with psychological counseling, is provided to expedite wound healing.
Inclusion Criteria:
- A mentally healthy, communicative adult. Patients and their families are cooperative, understanding, and supportive of this study.
Adult patients undergoing VSD surgery for chronic wounds.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who are unable to effectively cooperate with nursing questionnaires due to auditory or visual impairments, cognitive impairments, or low levels of cultural literacy.
Patients with poor compliance or those who harbor skepticism and hostility towards this research.
