Objective To analyze the value of foresight care for mechanical ventilation in EICU. Methods Mechanical ventilated patients (n=30) were treated in the EICU from December 2023 to March 2024. The trial and control group were 15 participants each, with the former receiving predictive care and the latter receiving usual care. Contrast the pulmonary infection rate and other indicators. Results Regarding the time of mechanical ventilation: only (4.18 ± 1.05) d in the test group, but the control group reached (6.93 ± 1.54) d, found that the time in the test group was shorter (P <0.05). Lung infection rate: 0.0% in the test group and 20.0% in the control group, and the data in the test group were lower (P <0.05). Adverse events: 0.0% in the test group and 20.0% in the control group, with lower data in the test group (P <0.05). Satisfaction: 93.33% in the test group, but only 73.33% in the control group, the test group was higher (P <0.05). sf-36 score: After intervention, the experimental group reached (88.12±2.64) score, but the control group was only (81.37±3.57) score, and the experimental group data was better (P < 0.05). Conclusion Predictive nursing with mechanical ventilation in EICU has lower pulmonary infection rate, higher satisfaction, fewer adverse events, better prognosis and shorter mechanical ventilation time.
