The Effectiveness of a Multidisciplinary Collaborative Model for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Vertigo

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of applying a multidisciplinary collaborative model for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with vertigo.Methods:The study was carried out in Xianyang Hospital of Yan’an University,in which 100 patients with vertigo were selected from April 2021 to April 2022 and were divided into two groups:the control group was under the single diagnosis and treatment model,whereas the experimental group was under the multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment model,with 50 cases in each group.The diagnostic effects of the two groups were compared.Results:The diagnostic and therapeutic efficiency of the patients in the experimental group were 94%and 98%,respectively,while those of the patients in the control group were 78%and 82%,respectively,with a significant difference between the two groups(p<0.05).The balance scores of the patients in both groups were low before the treatment,in which the difference was not significant(p>0.05);after the treatment,the scores improved,with those of the patients in the experimental group being significantly higher than those in the control group(p<0.05).Moreover,the satisfaction rate of patients in the experimental group(98%)was significantly higher than that of the control group(80%)(p<0.05).Conclusion:The application of the multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment model in the diagnosis of patients with vertigo is effective.The multidisciplinary model can improve clinical diagnosis,enhance the treatment effect,improve the clinical symptoms of patients,and increase the satisfaction of patient care.Hence,it is of high clinical application value.

Benefits of multidisciplinary collaborative care team-based nursing services in treating pressure injury wounds in cerebral infarction patients

BACKGROUND Cerebral infarction patients need to be bedridden for long periods of time often resulting in pressure injuries,which may represent a serious threat to patients'life and health.An effective nursing program should be adopted for timely intervention in patients with pressure wounds.AIM To explore the value of nursing services based on a multidisciplinary collaborative treatment team in patients with pressure injury wounds following cerebral infarction.METHODS Patients with cerebral infarction pressure injury wounds in our hospital from December 2016 to January 2021 were selected and divided into one study group and one control group based on the simple random number table method.The control group was treated with conventional nursing care(CNC),and the study group was treated with care services based on multidisciplinary collaborative care(MDCC).The Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing(PUSH),healing effect,Self-Perceived Burden Score(SPBS),and satisfaction with the intervention were calculated before and after 2 and 4 wk of intervention in both groups.RESULTS Sixty-two patients were enrolled,and 31 patients were assigned to each group.The results of the interventions were as follows:(1)There was no significant difference between the PUSH scores of the MDCC group(11.19±2.46)and CNC group(12.01±2.79)before the intervention(P>0.05),and the PUSH scores were lower after 2 and 4 wk of intervention in the MDCC group(6.63±1.97 and 3.11±1.04)than in the CNC group(8.78±2.13 and 4.96±1.35 points)(P<0.05);(2)The rate of wound healing in the MDCC group(96.77%)was higher than that in the CNC group(80.65%)(P<0.05);(3)There was no significant difference between the SPBS scores of emotional factors(21.15±3.11),economic factors(9.88±2.15),and physical factors(8.19±2.23)in the two groups before the intervention.The scores of emotional factors(13.51±1.88),economic factors(6.38±1.44),and physical factors(5.37±1.08)were lower in the MDCC group than in the CNC group(16.89±2.05,7.99±1.68 and 7.06±1.19)after 4 wk of intervention(P<0.05);and(4)Satisfaction with the intervention was higher in the MDCC group(93.55%)than in the CNC group(74.19%)(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Interventions for patients with cerebral infarction pressure wounds based on an MDCC treatment team can effectively reduce patients'self-perceived burden,improve pressure wound conditions,facilitate wound healing,and increase patient satisfaction with the intervention.
