Background: Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is a common complication of gynecological pelvic surgery. DVT focuses on prevention. How to make a detailed perioperative nursing plan and organize its implementation of the measures is a great significance for the prevention of DVT in patients undergoing gynecological pelvic surgery. Objective: To investigate the effect of perioperative nursing intervention measures on the prevention of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing pelvic surgery in gynecology. Methods: Set up a project improvement activity group, analyzation the reason of gynecological pelvic surgery patients with DVT, and development a detailed plan of perioperative nursing intervention measures. Organizing the implementation of “one-on-one” nursing intervention, the problems in the nursing process were collected and formulated solutions, inspection gaps in care, made up the nursing error and improved nursing content. It was used to improve the quality of preventive measures and promote their implementation by “plan-do-check-action” (PDCA) cycle. Results: The perioperative preventive measures were continuously improved with PDCA cycle. The incidence of DVT in patients with pelvic surgery in our gynecological ward decreased from 6.96% to 2.08%. The anus exhausting time, resumption of eating time, defecation time and first leaving bed time of perioperative nursing group were shorter than before of the project improvement activities. The hospitalization time of patients was also significantly shortened. The differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Through the follow-up survey, patients' satisfaction with nursing increased from 82.6% to 95.0%. Conclusion: Through the development of detailed perioperative nursing plan and promotion the implementation of the measures with PDCA cycle continuously improved for the prevention of DVT in patients undergoing gynecological pelvic surgery, the incidence of postoperative lower extremity DVT could be effectively reduced and also promote the rehabilitation of postoperative. It was significantly shortened in the hospitalization time of patients, and improved the satisfaction of patients in perioperative nursing.
