    AbstractThis study aims to analyze the influence of comprehensive nursing intervention on the postoperative pain, complications, and psychological pressure of otolaryngology patients.A total of 300 otolaryngology patients in our hospital from February 2016 to October 2017 were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups using the random number table: control group (n = 150), patients were given routine nursing; experimental group (n = 150), patients were given comprehensive nursing intervention. Postoperative pain, complications, and psychological pressure between the 2 groups were analyzed.Residual pain in the experimental group at 3 months after the operation was lower than that in the control group (P < .05). The postoperative complications in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (P < .05). The acute psychological pressure score and the psychological pressure self-test score in the experimental group were both lower than that in the control group (P < .05).Comprehensive nursing intervention for otolaryngology patients was associated to relieving pain after the operation and psychological pressure of patients in the short and long term. Besides, comprehensive nursing intervention for otolaryngology patients was associated with a lower risk of complications.
