ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background
Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography and drainage (PTCD) is an effective way to treat biliary obstruction. However, patients need to keep the drainage tube after they are discharged from the hospital. Enhanced nursing measures can increase the speed of recovery.
Research motivation
The motivation was to improve the recovery of patients after percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography drainage.
Research objectives
The study aimed to evaluate a rapid inpatient rehabilitation model to improve care, rehabilitation time, and patient quality of life after PTCD.
Research methods
A group study was conducted in 118 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice admitted to our hospital between May 2018 and January 2021.
Research results
The length of stay was shorter and the overall recovery level was better in the observation group than that of the control group.
Research conclusions
The rapid rehabilitation model promoted rehabilitation after PTCD, reduced post-PTCD complications, and reduced the tube-related admission rate within 3 mo after PTCD, and improved patient quality of life.
Research perspectives
The rapid recovery model improved recovery after PTCD, improved the patient quality of life, and potentially has broad clinical application.
