A multidisciplinary team nursing model in the treatment of patients undergoing transapical mitral valve clamping: a prospective study

Abstract

Background As a new surgical method for older adults with cardiac insufficiency, transapical mitral valve clamp surgery requires the cooperation of practitioners across multiple disciplines to ensure appropriate treatment and nursing care. This study aimed to explore the utility of a multidisciplinary team nursing model in the clinical treatment and nursing care of patients undergoing transapical mitral valve clamping. Methods Our sample of ten patients included four men (40%) and six women (60%), with a mean age of 71.4 ± 5.2 years. The multidisciplinary team comprised nurses that specialized in severe illness, cardiac health, rehabilitation, psychology, nutrition, and pain. The team engaged in comprehensive discussions regarding problems specific to the patients undergoing transapical mitral valve surgery, allowing them to formulate individualized nursing measures and implement precise policies. Results No serious postoperative complications occurred in any of the ten patients included in this study, and a significant improvement was noted in the cardiac status of all the patients. Color ultrasound findings at discharge indicated that the degree of reflux of all the patients was ≤2+. Among the ten patients, the Activity of Daily Living Scale scores at discharge were significantly higher than before the operation (69.0 ± 4.6 vs. 55.0 ± 5.8). In addition, the 6-min walking test results at discharge were significantly better than those observed before the operation (318.0 ± 21.7 m vs. 295.2 ± 18.4 m). Conclusions Utilization of a multidisciplinary team allows nurses across various specialties to provide more comprehensive and systematic care for patients undergoing a mitral valve clamping operation, thus promoting patient recovery.

Perioperative effect analysis of a multidisciplinary cooperative nursing model in children with mitral valve malformation: A single-center prospective study

“…Postoperative pain leads to the re ex contraction of the abdominal and chest muscles. Meanwhile, postoperative pain limits coughing, inducing poor sputum excretion, atelectasis, and secondary pulmonary infection and consequently aggravating the degree of hypoxia [17]. Effective analgesia can reduce postoperative complications, promote early postoperative activities, shorten the length of hospital stay, and speed up postoperative recovery.…”

Observation on the Effect of Rapid Rehabilitation Nursing with Integrated Medical Care in Perioperative Period of Laparoscopic Appendicitis in Children

“…Previous studies have found that strengthening the nursing cooperation of children during appendicitis operation can significantly improve children's rehabilitation, reduce the stress caused by surgery, and improve the sleep quality [7,8,9]. Integrated rapid rehabilitation is a new nursing model which is recognized at home and abroad, and can effectively contribute to the process of disease rehabilitation [10]. On the basis of previous studies, this study utilized LA to treat children with appendicitis, and observed and analyzed the effects of different nursing modes on perioperative indices, pain degree, stress response, and quality of life of children with appendicitis.…”

Factors Influencing Family Support for Education Patterns in School-Age Children

“…(Muhith, 2016) Thus, those aspects should be considered in the management of health service system.(S. Li et al, 2021) This success is affected by several factors either from nurse or system built in the hospital. (Prawirodihardjo, 2019) The supervision, leadership authority character, and compliance of nursing team member affect patient nursing quality.…”
