Methods: This study included 40 claustrophobic patients who underwent MR examination from March 2013 to May 2015 in our hospital. These patients were randomly divided into two groups;each group had 20 patients. Among them, usual care was taken in one group (control group) and nursing intervention was added on the basis of usual care in another group (observation group). The patient's psychological state and MR successful rate were compared between these two groups. Results: In control group and observation group, the scores of anxiety were 46.20 ±3.07, 37.50 ±2.54, respectively. The scores of depression were 44.30 ±2.54, 37.70 ±2.15. MR successful rates were 35.00% and 90.00%, respectively. There were significant differences in these two groups (P 【0.05). Conclusion: Effective nursing interventions can improve patient’s psychological state and MR successful rate for claustrophobic patients.展开更多
