ABSTRACT

The objective is to investigate the nursing experience of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in the treatment of complex renal calculi and provide references for improving the quality of life (QOL) of patients. We selected 37 patients with complex renal calculi who were admitted to our hospital from March 2023 to March 2024 and treated them with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). During the treatment, comprehensive nursing was provided based on the actual conditions of the patients and the surgical plan. Subsequently, the curative effect was analyzed. PCNL combined with comprehensive nursing care in the treatment of complex renal calculi is a complex and systematic process to provide patients with high-quality and efficient medical services and promote the recovery of these patients.In this study, patients were treated with PCNL and appropriate nursing, and the effective rate was 94.59% (35/37), with no complications such as infection and secondary bleeding. These patients recovered and were discharged from the hospital. Therefore, PCNL is worthy of being popularized and applied in clinical practice.
