Abstract
[Objective:] To explore holistic nursing strategies to improve the quality and efficiency of post-anesthesia care unit(PACU) resuscitation in childrenpatients undergoing ophthalmic laryngeal mask anesthesia. [Methods:] A total of 24,180 children patients who underwent general anesthesia and retained laryngeal mask airway for PACU resuscitation at Sun Yat-sen Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2020 to December 2023 was reviewed and summarized the nursing measures and resuscitation quality of children patients undergoing PACU resuscitation. [Results:] All patients underwent comprehensive care during the recovery period and successfully removed the laryngeal mask to complete anesthesia recovery. There were no cases of secondary intubation or unplanned transfer for treatment during the recovery period. After adopting personalized holistic nursing strategies, the average recovery time of PACU in children under laryngeal mask anesthesia was significantly shortened. The incidence of common postoperative complications(postoperative agitation, hypoxemia and respiratory obstruction) and adverse nursing events (indwelling needle falls off, eye bandage fall off) had been decreasing year by year. These complications had been improved after treatment and care. [Conclusions:] Based on the characteristics of children patients undergoing general anesthesia in ophthalmology, adopting personalized holistic nursing strategies during the anesthesia recovery period is beneficial for successfully completing anesthesia recovery, reducing the incidence of anesthesia complications and adverse nursing events, improving the quality and efficiency of recovery, and meeting the needs of rapid recovery in ophthalmic day surgery.
