About this study

Official title: Study on the Effect of Precise Aerosol Inhalation Nursing Program on Effective Sputum Excretion in Elderly Patients With Lung Surgery

Comparing the effects of different kinds of aerosol inhalation nursing programs on effective sputum excretion in elderly patients with lung surgery.

Read the detailed description

Based on the traditional oxygen aerosol inhalation treatment, this study will improve it. In the process, precise body position care, time control, observation and treatment, evaluation, etc. will be used to form a precise aerosol inhalation care plan. To explore the effect of this program on effective sputum excretion in elderly patients undergoing lung surgery.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Precise Aerosol Inhalation Nursing ProgramBehavioural

    The precise aerosol inhalation nursing program was based on the traditional oxygen aerosol inhalation treatment, including precise body position care, time control, observation and treatment, evaluation, etc.

  • Traditional Aerosol Inhalation Nursing MethodBehavioural

    The traditional aerosol inhalation nursing method is carried out according to the operation of aerosol inhalation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Standardization of aerosol inhalation

    The investigators use a self-made inhalation implementation standard evaluation form to evaluate whether inhalation was standard in postoperative patients.

    Measured: From the first to the third day after surgery.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Adverse events

    Discomfort during inhalation: chest tightness, dyspnea, palpitations, elevated blood pressure, etc.

    Measured: From the first to the third day after surgery.

  2. Viscosity of sputum

    According to the viscosity, the sputum was divided into three types: ⅰ degree (thin phlegm), ⅱ degree (moderate phlegm), ⅲ degree (severe phlegm).

    Measured: From the first to the third day after surgery.

  3. Phlegm retention

    Sputum sounds can be heard or ausculted at the bedside.

    Measured: From the first to the third day after surgery.

  4. Patient satisfaction

    Likert 5-level scoring method was adopted to allow patients to evaluate the nursing plan. The higher the score, the more satisfied the patients were.

    Measured: The third day after surgery.
