    Objective To explore the effect of plantar reflex area and hand point massage in the nursing care of neonates with hyperbilirubinemia. Methods A total of 112 neonates with hyperbilirubinemia and admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of the Third People′s Hospital of Yunnan Province between March and July 2024 were selected as study subjects. They were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group, each of 56, according to a random number table. Both groups received conventional blue light therapy, while the experimental group was additionally provided with plantar reflex area and hand point massage. Then, the transcutaneous bilirubin levels, total serum bilirubin levels, jaundice resolution time, length of hospital stay, frequency of defecation and incidence of adverse symptoms were compared between the two groups. Results The experimental group showed significantly lower transcutaneous bilirubin levels and total serum bilirubin levels than those of the control group (Fgroup=27.690, P<0.001; Fgroup=83.178, P<0.001). Moreover, the jaundice resolution time and length of hospital stay of the experimental group were significantly shorter than those of the control group(t=6.131, P<0.001; t=5.559, P<0.001), while the incidence of adverse symptoms was significantly lower than the latter(χ2=5.617,P=0.018). Meanwhile, the frequency of defecation in the experimental group was significantly more than that in the control group (t=-2.819, P=0.006). Conclusion The plantar reflex area and hand point massage demonstrates significant efficacy in the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. It effectively reduces bilirubin levels, promotes defecation to accelerate jaundice resolution, shortens hospital stays and alleviates clinical discomfort symptoms.

    Objective To explore the application effect of pre-rehabilitation in children undergoing enterostomy surgery. Methods By using the convenience sampling method, 84 children who underwent enterostomy surgery and were admitted to Wuhan Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology between June 2021 and June 2024 were selected as the research subjects. Those 43 operated between June 2021 and February 2023 were set as the control group, while another 41 operated between March 2023 and June 2024 were set as the observation group. Both groups received conventional care, while the observation group was additionally provided with pre-rehabilitation nursing intervention. The skin conditions around the stoma, the time of first spontaneous defecation and first water intake after secondary fistula closure surgery, and the occurrence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results The degree of skin injury around the stoma in the observation group was significantly milder than that of the control group (Z=-8.216, P<0.001), the incidences of postoperative complications was significantly lower(χ2=4.385, P=0.036), while the time of first spontaneous defecation and first water intake after secondary fistula closure was significantly earlier than the latter(t=5.318, P<0.001; t=2.660, P=0.010).

    Objective To explore the effect of non-nutritive sucking combined with music therapy on the pain of dorsal hand vein puncture in neonates. Methods By using the convenience sampling method, 146 newborns admitted to the NICU of Fujian Children′s Hospital between March 2024 and March 2025 were selected, and randomly divided into a control group (n=48), a non-nutritive sucking group(n=49), and a combination group(n=49) according to a random number table. All groups received conventional venipuncture, while the non-nutritive sucking and combination groups were additionally provided with non-nutritive sucking intervention, and non-nutritive sucking + music therapy intervention, respectively. The degree of pain from venipuncture and the fluctuations in heart rate were compared among the three groups. Results At the time of puncture and 5 minutes after that, there were significant differences in pain scores and heart rates among the three groups (F=10.949, P<0.001; F=3.623, P=0.030; F=7.666, P<0.001; F=9.853, P<0.001).
