Retrospective analysis of the efficacy of syndrome differentiation-based nursing in pediatric upper respiratory tract infections

Year: 2025

Abstract: This study aims to evaluate the impact of personalized nursing based on the syndrome differentiation-based nursing model on clinical symptoms, treatment outcomes, hospital stay duration, and parental satisfaction in pediatric patients with upper respiratory tract infections (URTI). A retrospective cohort design was employed, including 100 children hospitalized for URTI in the pediatric department of our hospital between January 2023 and June 2024. Patients were divided into an observation group (receiving individualized nursing based on the syndrome differentiation model) and a control group (receiving routine nursing care). The results revealed that the observation group had significantly shorter recovery times for fever, cough, appetite, mental state, and hospital stays compared to the control group (P < .05). No significant differences were observed between the 2 groups in terms of complication rates or symptom relief (P > .05). Parental satisfaction was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (P < .05). The study suggests that personalized nursing based on the syndrome differentiation model effectively improves clinical symptom recovery, shortens hospital stays, and enhances parental satisfaction, showing promising clinical potential for widespread application in pediatric URTI care.
