Cluster management has been rapidly developing and increasingly recognized in the clinical care of critically ill patients. Psychological interventions have considerable impact on the mood, sleep, and quality of life of critically ill patients. Therefore, we analyzed the influence of one-hour bundle (H1B) management combined with psychological interventions in patients with sepsis.
Severe cases of sepsis are often accompanied by mood and sleep disorders. We postulate that H1B management combined with psychological interventions may have an important impact on patients with sepsis.
The purpose of this research was to discuss the effects of H1B management combined with psychological intervention on negative emotions, sleep quality, and post-traumatic growth in patients with sepsis and to provide a reference for clinical treatment.
Patients were divided into a group undergoing H1B management only (simple group, SG) and a group undergoing H1B management combined with psychological intervention (combination group, CG). The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed to compare the influence of negative emotions, sleep quality, post-traumatic growth, and prognosis of patients in the two groups before (T0) and after (T1) intervention.
At T1, the Hamilton Anxiety scale and Hamilton Depression scale scores of the CG group were significantly lower than those of the SG group. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score of the CG group was significantly lower than that of the SG group. The Post Traumatic Growth Inventory score of the CG group was significantly higher than that of the SG group. The MOS36-item short-form health survey scores of the CG group were higher than those of the SG group. The mechanical ventilation time, intensive care unit stay time, and 28-d mortality of the CG group were lower than those of the SG group. These differences were significant (P < 0.05).
H1B management combined with psychological nursing interventions can effectively alleviate the adverse emotions of patients with sepsis, increase quality of sleep, and enhance the level of post-traumatic growth and quality of life.
Future research should further explore the impact of H1B management combined with psychological intervention on patients with sepsis from the perspective of negative emotions, sleep quality, post-traumatic growth, and prognosis. These findings may provide a reference for nursing management and treatment strategies for patients with sepsis.
