Objective To explore the impact of rapid rehabilitation nursing on the postoperative recovery of patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. Method 80 patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery in our hospital from February 2023 to February 2024 were selected as the study subjects. These patients were randomly divided into a reference group and an experimental group, with 40 patients in each group. The reference group received routine care, while the experimental group received rapid rehabilitation care. Compare the postoperative recovery indicators and incidence of complications between two groups. Result The experimental group had shorter anal exhaust time, eating time, getting out of bed activity time, and hospitalization time compared to the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05); The total incidence of complications in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the reference group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of rapid rehabilitation nursing mode in gastrointestinal surgery patients not only significantly accelerates the patients rehabilitation process, but also effectively reduces the incidence of complications and improves the overall nursing quality. It is a safe and efficient nursing strategy worthy of widespread clinical promotion.
