Abstract

To analyze the value of eye care based on ABCDE clustering strategy in the prevention of keratitis in ICU critically ill patients. Method: From July 2024 to July 2025,60 critically ill patients admitted to ICU in our hospital were selected as the research objects. According to different nursing modes, they were divided into control group and observation group, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was given routine nursing, and the observation group was given eye nursing based on ABCDE clustering strategy. The incidence of keratitis was compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence of keratitis in the observation group was 6.67 % (2/30), and the incidence of keratitis in the control group was 26.67 % (8/30). Compared between groups, the observation group was lower, X2 = 4.320, P < 0.05. Conclusion: The application of eye care based on ABCDE clustering strategy in the prevention of keratitis in ICU critically ill patients is helpful to reduce the incidence of keratitis.
