Objective To analyze the nursing experience of continuous oral low negative pressure suction on neonates with esophagotracheal fistula. Methods A total of 17 cases of neonatal esophagotracheal fistula patients who received diagnosis and treatment in the past five years were analyzed. After numbering each patient, a random selection method was used to set them as a control group (8 cases) and an observation group (9 cases). Two groups of nursing interventions were implemented using conventional methods and continuous oral low negative pressure suction methods, and the intervention situation was analyzed. Results In terms of adverse events, the observation group had a lower overall incidence rate compared to the control group (P < 0.05). In terms of the duration of clinical symptoms, the observation group had lower values in all aspects compared to the two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion Implementing continuous oral low negative pressure suction in clinical nursing is beneficial for reducing the risk of adverse events in newborns with esophagotracheal fistula, reducing nursing workload, improving the quality of care for such children, and shortening the duration of clinical symptoms. This is of great significance for improving the nursing level of newborns with esophagotracheal fistula.
