Application of "Internet+" cognitive-behavioral intervention in caregivers of children with congenital heart disease undergoing elective surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of cognitive and behavioral interventions for caregivers of children undergoing interventional surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD) during COVID-19.
METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on 140 children with CHD who were hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology in a children's hospital from March 2020 to March 2022. The children were randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group, with 70 cases in each group. In the control group, caregivers gave routine care, and in the intervention group, "Internet+" cognitive and behavioral interventions were given. The psychological status of caregivers before and after intervention, day care ability on the operation day, readiness for hospital discharge of the caregivers, sleep quality, and postoperative complications of the children, the medication compliance, review compliance and satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the anxiety and depression scores of caregivers in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P <0.05), and the caregiving ability and readiness for hospital discharge of the caregivers in the intervention group were better than those in the control group ( P <0.05). The sleep quality of children in the intervention group was significantly better than that in the control group during the first week after operation ( P <0.05). Postoperative complications were significantly fewer in the intervention group than in the control group ( χ 2 =24.433, P <0.001). The medication compliance, review compliance, and satisfaction were higher in the intervention group than in the control group ( P <0.05).
CONCLUSION: During the pandemic period of COVID-19, "Internet+" cognitive and behavioral intervention has a good effect and should be promoted in clinical practice.
