Abstract

Objective: To analyse the clinical application of comfort care in mother-infant room. Methods: A total of 150 cases of maternal and infant delivery in the same room were selected for the study, randomly divided into two groups, the experimental group and the control group were 75 cases. The control group took conventional nursing intervention measures, and the experimental group implemented the comfortable nursing intervention mode. Under the guidance of comfort concept, nursing management was carried out from environment, physiology, psychology and other aspects. The postpartum negative emotions, comfortable conditions, the growth and development of newborn babies and the satisfaction of nursing work were compared. Results: After intervention, experimental group had lower scores of HAMD and HAMA as well as higher GCQ scores than those of control group (P < 0.05). The body length, body weight and head circumference of neonates, as well as nursing technology, professional service and environmental satisfaction in experimental group were higher than those in control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Applying the comfort nursing mode in mother-infant room can help improve the maternal physical and mental states, promote the growth and development of newborn, and markedly improve the quality and efficiency of nursing work.
