Abstract

To observe the impact of refined nursing on respiratory function and prognosis of critically ill patients after cardiac surgery in ICU. Methods: A total of 86 critically ill patients who underwent cardiac surgery in ICU of our hospital from March 2024 to June 2025 were selected as research subjects and randomly divided into two groups (43 cases in each group: control group and observation group). The control group received routine nursing, while the observation group received refined nursing. Blood gas levels, respiratory function scores, and complications of the two groups were statistically analyzed. Results: After nursing, the partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The respiratory function of the observation group after treatment was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of complications in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Implementing refined nursing for critically ill patients after cardiac surgery in ICU helps improve patients' respiratory function and blood gas levels, reduce the incidence of complications, and promote patient recovery and prognosis.
