Abstract：Objective To analyze the application value of a continuous care model in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)complicated by acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods A total of 86 patients with SLE and AKI treated at Fujian Provincial Hospital from October 2022 to April 2024 were included in the study.Patients were randomly divided into a continuous care group(observation group,n=43)and a conventional care group(control group,n=43).Clinical biochemical indicators and self-management abilities were compared between the two groups at different time points.Results One day before discharge,there were no significant differences between the two groups in clinical biochemical indicators or self-management abilities(P＞0.05).Three months after discharge,both groups showed improvements in clinical biochemical indicators and self-management abilities(P＜0.05).The obser-vation group had significantly lower levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen compared to the control group(P＜0.05),while urine output,total protein,and albumin levels were significantly higher(P＜0.05).Additionally,the observation group scored significantly higher in all four aspects of self-management abilities and total score compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The continuous care model is beneficial for improving the recovery of clinical biochemical indicators and enhancing self-management abilities in patients with SLE complicated by AKI.
