| Popis: | Objective This study aimed to create a group of nursing intervention (cluster nursing) strategies of phototherapy for neonates and to evaluate clinical effects of intervention measures on reducing neonatal jaundice in neonates. Methods We performed a prospective study. A total of 141 patients with neonatal ABO hemolytic jaundice were included and randomly divided into two groups: intervention group and control group. The intervention group adopted cluster nursing measures in combination with continuous phototherapy (blue light), while the control group adopted routine nursing together with continuous phototherapy (blue light). Results No differences were observed in general characteristics between the groups. On the seventh day of treatment, percutaneous bilirubin levels were significantly lower in the intervention group than in the control group. On the seventh day of treatment, milk intake was significantly higher and the duration of hospitalization was significantly shorter in the intervention group than in the control group. Conclusion Use of cluster nursing measures in combination with phototherapy in neonatal ABO hemolysis can effectively reduce bilirubin levels, improve symptoms of jaundice, and shorten the course of the disease. |
