Effects of nursing service model of COPD quality of care out in patient department King Narai Hospital

Abstract

Objective: To study the effect of using a nursing service model of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) quality of care outpatient department, King Narai Hospital.

                Research methodology: This is a single group of quasi-experimental research with evaluation before and after using a nursing service model. The 30 patients were specifically selected as patient sample according to properties requirement. They are a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patient who receive services in outpatient department, King Narai Hospital during 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2021. The information before and after using nursing service model for 6 months were collected. The statistics used in the data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation and pair t test.

                Results: the results of nursing service model of COPD quality found that (1) the mean score of knowledge after using the nursing model showed statistically significantly higher than before using the nursing model at 0.00 level. (2) The mean pulmonary function test after using the nursing model was statistically significantly higher than before using the nursing model at 0.00 level. (3) The COPD assessment test after using the nursing model was significantly lower than before using the nursing model with statistical significance at the 0.01 level. (4) The Modified medical research council dyspnea score after using the nursing model was significantly lower than before using the nursing model at 0.00 level. (5) The walking distance in 6 minutes after using the nursing model was significantly higher than before using the 0.00 nursing model. (6) The satisfaction level of COPD patients with the overall nursing service model was at the highest level (mean=4.53, S.D. = 0.37).
