Influence of nursing intervention on patients with recurrent bacterial vaginosis treated with sucrose gel

Abstract

Background: Bacterial vaginosis significantly affects gynecological health of women, and recurrence is common with a high prevalence in patients who received sucrose gel treatment. Evidence has found that nursing intervention has benefits in improving the rate of recurrence of gynecological diseases. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of nursing intervention on patients with recurrent bacterial vaginosis treated with sucrose gel. Methods: A total of 1096 patients with bacterial vaginosis were recruited and randomly divided into the intervention nursing group (n = 548) and the control group (n = 548) between May 2022 and October 2022. Patients with bacterial vaginosis in the nursing intervention group received the individualized nursing intervention program, while patients in the control group received routine nursing for vaginitis and follow-up. The clinical efficacy and the short form health survey MOS 36 items (SF-36) scale were used to evaluate the efficacy of nursing intervention efficacy in patients with vaginosis treated with sucrose gel. Results: Our results indicate that the nursing intervention was associated with significant improvements in physical functioning, depression, mental health, bodily vitality pain, and symptoms related to bacterial vaginosis compared to the control group patients. The social functioning-36 score in the nursing intervention group was higher than that in the control group during the 6-month period. Nursing intervention significantly decreased the recurrence of bacterial vaginosis via improvement quality of life and psychological states. Conclusions: In conclusion, the data in this study indicate that the nursing intervention improves recurrent bacterial vaginosis and the quality of life of patients treated with sucrose gel.
