The impact of shared governance on the adverse mood of parturients with gestational hypertension and perinatal indicators of newborns

This study aimed to investigate the effect of shared governance on the adverse mood of parturients with gestational hypertension and perinatal indicators of newborns. A total of 318 patients with gestational hypertension treated in our hospital were enrolled as study subjects and were divided into a study group (200 cases) and a control group (118 cases) using double-blind, controlled and randomised methods. Before intervention, the systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and Quality of Life Scale (SF-36) scores did not differ significantly between the two groups (p>.05). After intervention, the study group had lower SBP, DBP, HAMA and HAMD scores and higher SF-36 scores than the control group (p<.05). The neonates in the study group experienced a lower incidence of adverse outcomes than those in the control group (p<.05). Shared governance can regulate blood pressure and improve mood and quality of life in parturients with gestational hypertension. It can also reduce the incidence of adverse events in newborns during the perinatal period. Impact StatementWhat is already known on this subject? Gestational hypertension is the development of hypertension in pregnant women after 2 or 20 weeks of gestation and is characterised by headache, dizziness, nausea and swelling of the lower legs. Early intervention is key to improving maternal and neonatal prognosis. Shared governance is an emerging model of participatory decision-making in which nurses are empowered to make decisions about clinical practice standards, quality improvement, staff and professional development, and research, aiming to cultivate the patients' sense of responsibility for their health.What do the results of this study add? This study demonstrated that shared governance can regulate maternal blood pressure and improve maternal adverse mood, maternal quality of life and reduce the incidence of perinatal adverse events in the newborn, indicating the potential of shared governance and may promote the clinical application of shared governance.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? This study starts with adverse mood of parturients and perinatal outcomes of newborns, and demonstrates in detail the impact of shared governance in nursing interventions on parturients with gestational hypertension and neonates. The data are detailed and reliable, providing certain clinical references for follow-up research.
