Abstract
BACKGROUND

Chronic sinusitis is a kind of chronic suppurative inflammation of the sinus mucosa. Nasal endoscopy is a good method to treat nasal polyps. However postoperative rehabilitation and care should not be neglected.

AIM

To investigate the Effect of nursing intervention on the rehabilitation of patients with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps (CSNPS) after nasal endoscopy.

METHODS

A total of 129 patients with CSNPS hospitalized from February 2017 to February 2019 were studied. Using the digital parity method, we investigated nursing cooperation strategies for endoscopic surgery. The comparison group (64 cases): Surgical nursing was carried out with traditional nursing measures; experimental group (65 cases): Surgical nursing was carried out by traditional nursing countermeasures + comprehensive nursing measures. We compared postoperative recovery rates, nursing satisfaction rates, and nasal cavity ratings between the two groups.

RESULTS

Experimental group patients with CSNPS had a significantly higher recovery rate (98.46%) compared to the control group (79.69%). This difference was statistically significant (χ2 = 11.748, P < 0.05). Additionally, the satisfaction rate with treatment was also significantly higher in the experimental group (98.46%) compared to the control group (79.69%), with a statistically significant difference (χ2 = 11.748, P < 0.05). Before nursing, there was no significant difference in sinus nasal cavity scores between the experimental group (20.29 ± 7.25 points) and the control group (20.30 ± 7.27 points) (t = 0.008, P > 0.05). However, after nursing, the sinus nasal cavity score in the experimental group (8.85 ± 3.22 points) was significantly lower than that in the control group (14.99 ± 5.02 points) (t = 8.282, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSION

Comprehensive nursing intervention in patients with CSNPS can significantly improve the total recovery rate after endoscopic surgery.

Core Tip: In this study, we studied the nursing effect of endoscopic surgery in patients with nasal polyps and sinusitis. A total of 129 patients in our hospital were selected and divided into two groups. The control group was given routine nursing and the experimental group was given comprehensive nursing based on routine nursing. The results showed that the experimental group's postoperative recovery rate, nursing satisfaction, and nasal test score were better than the control group.
