Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to analyze and explore the nursing effects of integrated medical and nursing care intervention in correction surgery for children with concealed penis. METHODS: A total of 76 eligible patients with concealed penis were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. The control group received conventional nursing care, while the observation group received integrated medical and nursing care intervention. Outcomes include pain levels, comfort status, incidence of complications, and nursing satisfaction were collected and analyzed to investigate the nursing effects of the integrated medical and nursing care model. RESULTS: After 2/3 days of nursing intervention, the patients in the observation group had significantly lower pain scores (measured by FPS-R) compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The patients in the observation group also had significantly higher comfort scores (measured by Kolcabal) compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (2.63 vs. 23.68, P < 0.05). Parental satisfaction in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The integrated medical and nursing care intervention in correction surgery for children with concealed penis demonstrated positive nursing effects. It effectively reduced pain, improved comfort, lowered the risk of complications, and increased parental satisfaction. This approach maximizes the role of nursing care and is recommended for clinical implementation.
