NCT06784830 | Recruiting

• 1 other identifier: SichuanPPH-HL
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 200
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The impact of nursing Interventions during PET/CT imaging in Alzheimer's patients on image quality and patient satisfaction will be assessed in 200 patients.

Conditions

Alzheimer's Disease

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Comparison of refined nursing and routine nursing intervention in Alzheimer's Patients during PET/CT Imaging

  The control group received routine care. The nurse gave pre-examination education to the control group, and all the subjects rested in the waiting room and waited for examination. During the examination, the examination was completed according to the general nursing measures corresponding to different tracers, and the examination was completed by leaving the examination room after the end. The patients in the observation group were educated before examination and received refined nursing measures on the basis of routine nursing.

  through study completion, an average of 6 months

Study Arms (2)

Refinement of specialized nursing intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

This specialized nursing emphasizes individualized care plans customized to each patient's unique condition, targeting improvements in both the treatment experience and overall results.

Other: Effects on Image Quality and Patient Satisfaction; Other: Anxiety degree of patients after nursing

Routine nursing intervention

NO INTERVENTION

The nurse gave pre-examination education to the control group. All the subjects rested in the waiting room and waited for examination. During the examination, the examination was completed according to the general nursing measures corresponding to different tracers.
