摘要：
Objective: To observe the effect of comfort nursing on pain, quality of life, and nutritional status in children undergoing tonsillectomy. Methods: In this retrospective study, a total of 114 children who underwent tonsillectomy in Chun'an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were divided into a research group and a control group according to the nursing methods, with 57 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, and the research group received additional comfort nursing. We compared the pain level (assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS) scale), quality of life (assessed by Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOLI-74)), relevant clinical indicators (postoperative swallowing recovery time, wake-up time, and hospital stay), nutrition indicators (total blood protein and albumin), sleep quality (assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PAQI)), nursing satisfaction, and postoperative complications between the two groups. Results: After postoperative nursing, the VAS scores and PSQI scores were significantly decreased (both P<0.05), and the GQOLI-74 scores were significantly increased (P<0.05) in both groups. The postoperative swallowing recovery time, wake-up time, and hospital stay in the research group were significantly shorter than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The levels of total serum protein and albumin in the research group were significantly higher than those in the control group (both P<0.05). The research group showed a significantly higher satisfaction rate and lower incidence of complications as compared with the control group (both P<0.05). The results of the logistic regression analysis showed that postoperative upper respiratory infection and the degree of tonsillar embedment were independent risk factors for hemorrhage after tonsillectomy (P<0.05). Conclusion: In children undergoing tonsillectomy, providing comfort nursing can significantly reduce pain and improve their quality of life.
