Abstract：Objective To explore effects of psychological nursing intervention on the detection of children's fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO). Methods A total of 318 children who received FeNO test in Children's Respiratory and Asthma Clinic of Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were randomly divided into observation group (n＝160) and control group (n＝158). The control group was tested according to the routine FeNO detection process, and the observation group was added with psychological nursing intervention in the routine FeNO detection process. The measurement time, number of crying, detection cooperation, completion rate, and parents' satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the control group, the observation group had a shorter completion time for FeNO detection (t＝27.895, P＜0.001), lesser crying (t＝33.421, P＜0.001), and higher rates of detection cooperation (χ2＝6.921, P＜0.01), completion (χ2＝10.973, P＜0.001) and parents' satisfaction (χ2＝7.604, P＜0.01). Conclusion In the process of children's FeNO detection, psychological nursing intervention can relieve children's anxiety, shorten the measurement time, increase detection cooperation and completion, and improve the satisfaction of parents.
