Abstract:

Objective: To observe the effects of child interest induction combined with detailed nursing on the emotional state and therapeutic outcomes of children with community-acquired pneumonia. Methods: A prospective study was conducted, enrolling 82 children with community-acquired pneumonia admitted to the Putian University Affiliated Hospital from February 2023 to April 2024 as the study subjects. The subjects were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 41 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the observation group received playful induction combined with detailed nursing care in addition to routine measures. The emotional state, treatment compliance, symptom improvement time, and hospitalization duration were observed and compared between the two groups. Results: After intervention, the child medical fear scale (CMFS) score and the screen for child anxiety related emotional disorders (SCARED) score in the observation group were (18.29±1.83) points and (26.85±2.67) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group (22.68±2.70) points and (34.25±3.47) points, and the differences were statistically significant (t-values were 8.618 and 10.822, respectively, with P values<0.001). The total compliance rate of the observation group was 95.12% (39/41), significantly higher than the control group’s 80.49% (33/41), and the difference was statistically significant (Z=2.312, P=0.021). The observation group had significantly shorter durations of fever reduction ((2.76±0.45) days), wheezing ((3.75±0.54) days), disappearance of lung rales ((6.52±0.68) days), and hospitalization time ((7.41±0.32) days), respectively, compared to the control group ((3.86±0.52) days, (4.46±0.62) days, (7.68±0.84) days, and (8.35±0.46) days, respectively), with statistically significant differences (t-values of 10.242, 5.529, 6.873, 10.741, P values<0.001). Conclusion: The combination of child interest induction and detailed nursing can improve the emotional state of children with community-acquired pneumonia, enhance treatment compliance, promote disease recovery process, shorten symptom improvement and hospitalization time.
