Clinical Scorecard: Impact of an Advanced Information Management System on Postoperative Infection Prevention in Patients with Indwelling Double-J Stents Following Urinary Tract Stone Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Study

At a Glance

Key Highlights

• Intervention group had 0% delayed stent removal compared to 10% in control group (P = 0.048)
• 0% catheter-related urinary tract infection in intervention group versus 12% in control group (P = 0.023)
• Higher Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale score in intervention group (145.32 vs. 131.54, P < 0.001)
• Improved Social Support Rating Scale score in intervention group (45.68 vs. 37.51, P < 0.001)
• Higher overall patient satisfaction in intervention group (96% vs. 82%, P = 0.025)

Guideline-Based Recommendations

Diagnosis

• Patients should be screened for urinary tract infection prior to surgery.

Management

• Implement full-process intelligent information management for postoperative care.

Monitoring & Follow-up

• Regular follow-up reminders for stent removal and infection prevention.

Risks

• Monitor for complications such as urinary tract infection and delayed stent removal.

Patient & Prescribing Data

100 patients aged 18-75 years with indwelling double-J stents post-surgery.

Full-process management significantly reduces complications and improves patient outcomes.

Clinical Best Practices

• Establish a multidisciplinary urology medical-nursing team.
• Utilize an intelligent reminder and follow-up system.
• Implement perioperative infection-prevention measures.
• Provide multimodal health education.
• Ensure checklist-based continuity of care.
