The Effectiveness of a Specialized Nursing Team Intervention in the Unplanned Interruption of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

Background: to explore the application of specialist nursing teams in patients undergoing unplanned interruptions in continuous renal replacement therapy. methods: sixty-six patients admitted to the intensive care unit of jiangsu province hospital, china for continuous renal replacement therapy (crrt) and experienced unplanned interruptions from aug 2020 to mar 2021 were enrolled as study subjects. twenty four patients with conventional care were taken as the control group, and 42 patients in the specialized nursing team were taken as the experimental group. the age, type of disease, and degree of illness of the two groups were statistically processed and the differences were not significant (p>0.05) and were comparable. the control group received routine crrt care after crrt rescue, and the experimental group received crrt care model from a specialized nursing team. results: patients in the group with specialized nursing care had 49 instances of crrt unplanned interruptions, and the routine care group had 79 instances of crrt unplanned interruptions. the number of unplanned interruptions in the experimental group was less than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). the incidence of complications in the experimental group were lower than that of the control group (p<0.05). the satisfaction and quality of life of nurses in the specialist nursing group were clearly lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). conclusion: specialist nursing teams could reduce the occurrence of unplanned interruptions in crrt patients in intensive care and allow patients to receive continuity of care.
