Therefore, for this kind of patients, it is necessary to do a good job of comprehensive nursing to help them relieve their pain. In this experiment, 60 patients with bronchial asthma in acute exacerbation were selected by contrast method. These patients were divided into observation group and control group with 30 cases in each group. The control group received general nursing, while the observation group received comprehensive nursing. The nursing effects of the two groups were analyzed. After a period of intervention, through the comparative analysis of data, it can be concluded that the comprehensive nursing mode used by the observation group is better than the general nursing mode. Besides the total effective rate of treatment, the incidence of adverse reactions is relatively low. This shows that for this kind of patients, it is best to use comprehensive nursing in clinic, which can effectively improve the clinical situation of patients.展开更多
