Objective To analyze and explore the application effect of targeted nursing in the nursing of neonatal omphalitis. Methods The duration of this study was from August 2023 to August 2024. The samples were included from the neonates with omphalitis admitted to the hospital during this period, with a total of 72 cases. According to the "principle of balanced and comparable groups", systematic sampling method was used to divide them into parallel groups, with each group including (n = 36). Group A received routine nursing, and Group B was given secondary umbilical cord ligation nursing and targeted intervention on the basis of the above. Finally, the clinical data and relevant data of the two groups of neonates were collected, and the intervention effects under different nursing schemes were compared. Results After statistical analysis, it can be seen that the umbilical cord shedding time, umbilical cord healing time, inflammation regression time, complication incidence rate, and parents satisfaction of the neonates in Group B were all superior to those in Group A, P < 0.05, which is worthy of discussion. Conclusion The addition of targeted nursing can not only effectively shorten the course of neonatal omphalitis and reduce the risk of complications, but also greatly enhance the nurse-patient relationship and improve the satisfaction of parents with nursing work. It has significant application value and is worthy of promotion.
