Summary

This study focuses on providing clinical care to patients undergoing VSD drainage surgery for chronic wounds, while also paying attention to the impact of negative emotions such as depression and anxiety, as well as quality of life and social support, on the patients' physical and mental well-being. It observes the influence of psychology on patients.

Detailed description

The chronic, difficult-to-heal wounds not recovering within the expected timeframe not only impact the quality of life for patients and hinder the recovery of the primary condition but also exacerbate their financial and psychological burdens, further affecting the quality of wound healing. The objective of this study is to employ psychological nursing interventions effectively combined with nursing techniques and communication strategies. By listening to patients' fears, anxieties, and tensions, it significantly alleviates their negative emotions, enhances compliance with medical advice, and predicts postoperative complications to mitigate them. Tailored and empathetic care, along with psychological counseling, is provided to expedite wound healing.

BEHAVIORAL	Psychological Intervention Group	The intervention group provides psychological education to patients, emphasizing participation in a "Surgery Success" patient group organized by researchers, and collects successful patient cases for promotion. Patients are encouraged to learn from successful cases within the group. Psychological intervention is also provided to family members, as they are the primary caregivers, and guiding their thoughts is crucial. Timely identification of patients with psychological abnormalities is conducted, with psychological consultations if necessary. Targeted measures are taken for patients with psychological abnormalities. Upon discharge, one-on-one consultation and tracking services are provided by designated nurses to alleviate patients' feelings of helplessness and despair, continuing until the patient fully recovers.
