Both two groups were given routine nursing management, and the risk management method was performed in the observation. The incidences of nursing risk events and complaints rate were compared between two groups. Results The incidence of nursing risk events was 2.0 %(2/100) in the observation group and was 14.0%(14/100) in the control group, with a significant difference(P＜0.05). There were 8 cases of nursing complaints reported in the control group, but none of patients in the observation group complained about the nursing service.
