Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of quality care on maternal and infant outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorders complicating pregnancy (HDCP) complicated by cerebral hemorrhage.
Methods: From February 2020 to September 2021, 68 women with HDCP complicated by cerebral hemorrhage hospitalized at our hospital were included and divided into a routine group (standard care) and a quality group (quality care). Outcome measures included National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, blood pressure, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) scores, self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores, and maternal and infant outcomes.
Results: Patients in the quality group (3.22±1.89) had significantly lower NIHSS scores aftercare than those in the routine group (6.15±3.24) (P < .05). Quality care resulted in lower diastolic blood pressure (Quality group:81.23±6.15; Routine: 90.58±7.98), systolic blood pressure (Quality group:125.49±13.37; Routine: 139.74±16.67), SAS scores (Quality group: 48.42±2.65; Routine: 58.15±2.43), and SDS scores versus routine care (Quality group:48.42±2.65; Routine: 58.15±2.43)(P < .05). The quality group showed a lower incidence of adverse maternal and infant pregnancy outcomes than the routine group (P < .05).
Conclusion: The findings underscore the positive impact of quality care in reducing adverse maternal and newborn pregnancy outcomes. This reduction is particularly significant for clinical practice, as it is achieved through the amelioration of various factors, such as neurological impairments, blood pressure regulation, and the alleviation of negative emotions, including anxiety and depression, in patients with HDCP complicated by cerebral hemorrhage. The practical implications of these findings for healthcare providers and patients are substantial. They highlight the potential to improve patient outcomes, enhance the overall quality of care, and reduce the burden on healthcare systems. By addressing these factors, healthcare providers can enhance the well-being of both mothers and newborns, leading to improved clinical outcomes and increased patient satisfaction.
