First of all, it is necessary to establish a good nurse-patient relationship with patients through continuity of care, which is the key to the success of psychological care. Through the words, deeds, demeanor and other factors of the nursing staff, they influence the patients. They have a kind attitude when dealing with patients, put themselves in the shoes of the patients in everything, and gain the dependence of the patients with skilled skills.
At the same time, we should actively introduce the relevant rules and regulations of the hospital and ward facilities to patients so that they can become familiar with and adapt to the treatment environment. We should also briefly introduce the hospital's medical equipment conditions, the technical strength of medical staff, etc., through harmonious communication. By talking, you can gradually understand the patient's psychological state. After analysis, you can provide targeted explanations of the causes of various psychological states, enlighten the work, and make the patient feel at ease.
For patients with nervousness and fear, it is necessary to explain the relevant knowledge of the disease in simple and easy-to-understand language, and explain to the patient that surgery, like medication and injections, is one of the necessary means to treat the disease and recover. . While specifying the necessity of surgical treatment, preoperative adaptive psychological care can be provided. Patients who have undergone surgery for the same disease can be organized to talk about their experiences during the surgery and introduce the cooperative treatment experience. Individual patients can even be allowed to visit. Understand the surgical environment, drug configuration, rescue facilities, etc., so as to adapt to the surgical treatment environment and ensure that medical staff and patients have the same wishes. They are doing their best for the patient's health recovery, so that the tension and fear can be reduced or disappeared.
For patients with anxiety, the condition should be properly explained to the patient, and the relevant surgical knowledge should be introduced, as well as the purpose, significance, safety level, precautions, anesthesia methods, etc. of the surgery, as well as possible situations that may occur during and after the surgery. How to overcome and avoid it. For example, patients undergoing abdominal surgery should be taught how to relax their abdomen. It should be explained that relaxation training can reduce mental and muscle tension, divert attention, and enhance pain tolerance during and after surgery. Sexually, for various major surgeries, patients should be trained on how to cough and how to take deep breaths before surgery to avoid fear of wound pain and fear of coughing after surgery, which may lead to pulmonary complications. For patients who need to place various catheters after surgery , Patients with drainage tubes, gastric tubes, and urinary tubes should be explained to the patient before surgery so that they will not increase their mental burden after surgery.
At the same time, we should do a good job in educating the patient's family and advise them to encourage the patient to cooperate with treatment and surgery. Because the comfort and encouragement of the family sometimes play a role that is difficult for medical staff to play, this helps the patient. Overcome anxiety and uneasiness, enhance confidence in surgical treatment, and be mentally prepared for surgery.
Carry out nursing work conscientiously. For patients with pessimism and despair, you should not only sympathize and comfort the patient, but also provide more care and explain to the patient the possibility of curing the disease and the specific treatment methods.
At the same time, it is necessary to repeatedly emphasize that maintaining a good attitude is closely related to the good prognosis of the disease, help them establish a correct outlook on life and happiness, dispel worries, fight against the disease tenaciously, and greet the disease with a good mental state Or cooperate with surgery.
Good nursing work is closely related to the success or failure of the operation, and it also plays a considerable psychological stabilizing effect on the patient.
In short, in the nurse-patient contact before surgical treatment, the nurse is not limited to understanding the patient’s disease, but also needs to understand the patient’s psychological needs, emotional changes, personality characteristics, and the specific society in which the patient lives. Psychosocial factors such as environment and interpersonal relationships enable patients to get not only drugs and surgeries from medical staff, but more importantly, extremely beneficial psychological help, such as sympathy, confidence, support, comfort, etc., thus making patients Overcome various negative mentalities and be in the best physical and psychological state when undergoing surgery.
