Abstract: Objective To evaluate the application effect of four-hand operation combined with ADOPT mode in the treatment of acute pulpitis in the elderly. Methods A total of 80 elderly patients with acute pulpitis admitted to our hospital from January to December 2022 were randomly enrolled in this study using the random sampling method, and were divided into the experimental group and the control group according to the visiting time, with 40 cases in each group. The experimental group received four-hand operation combined with ADOPT mode treatment, and the control group received conventional four-hand operation treatment. Frankl Scale, Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS), General Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and nursing satisfaction questionnaire were used to evaluate treatment adherence, positive and negative emotions, self-efficacy and nursing satisfaction of the patients, respectively, and the scores were compared between the two groups. Results The adherence rate in the experimental group was 80.0%, compared with 30.0% in the control group (P<0.05). The positive emotion score in the experimental group was 31.32±1.05, compared with 26.95±1.05 in the control group (P<0.05). The self-efficacy score in the experimental group after the intervention was 37.27±1.79, compared with 21.15±1.02 in the control group (P<0.05). Nursing satisfaction in the experimental group was 97.5%, compared with 72.5% in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Four-hand operation combined with ADOPT mode can significantly improve the patients’ treatment compliance, positive emotions and self-efficacy in the elderly patients with acute pulpitis, and improve the patients’ satisfaction with nursing work.
