The chronic, difficult-to-heal wounds not recovering within the expected timeframe not only impact the quality of life for patients and hinder the recovery of the primary condition but also exacerbate their financial and psychological burdens, further affecting the quality of wound healing. The objective of this study is to employ psychological nursing interventions effectively combined with nursing techniques and communication strategies. By listening to patients' fears, anxieties, and tensions, it significantly alleviates their negative emotions, enhances compliance with medical advice, and predicts postoperative complications to mitigate them. Tailored and empathetic care, along with psychological counseling, is provided to expedite wound healing.

Inclusion criteria
Adult patients undergoing VSD surgery for chronic wounds.

The intervention group provides psychological education to patients, emphasizing participation in a "Surgery Success" patient group organized by researchers, and collects successful patient cases for promotion. Patients are encouraged to learn from successful cases within the group. Psychological intervention is also provided to family members, as they are the primary caregivers, and guiding their thoughts is crucial. Timely identification of patients with psychological abnormalities is conducted, with psychological consultations if necessary. Targeted measures are taken for patients with psychological abnormalities. Upon discharge, one-on-one consultation and tracking services are provided by designated nurses to alleviate patients' feelings of helplessness and despair, continuing until the patient fully recovers.

Time frame: After 4 weeks of intervention
The Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) was developed by W.K. Zung in 1971. This scale consists of 20 items reflecting subjective feelings of anxiety, with each item rated on a four-point scale based on the frequency of symptoms. The scoring criteria are as follows: "1" indicates none or very little time; "2" indicates some of the time; "3" indicates a good part of the time; "4" indicates most or all of the time.According to normative results, in China, the standard deviation cutoff for SAS is 53 points. The divisions are as follows:53 to 62 points: Mild anxiety,63 to 72 points: Moderate anxiety,Above 72 points: Severe anxiety.
Time frame: After 4 weeks of intervention
The Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) was developed by W.K. Zung in 1965. This scale comprises 20 items reflecting subjective feelings of depression, with each item rated on a four-point scale based on the frequency of symptoms. For positively scored items, the ratings are 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively, while for negatively scored items, they are 4, 3, 2, 1. The normal upper limit for the total raw score of SDS is 41 points, with lower scores indicating better states. The standard score is obtained by multiplying the total raw score by 1.25 and taking the integer part. The standard deviation cutoff for SDS is 53 points. The divisions are as follows:53 to 62points:Mild depression,63 to 72 points: Moderate depression,Above 73 points: Severe depression.
Time frame: After 4 weeks of intervention
The satisfaction was calculated using our hospital's unified discharge satisfaction questionnaire for inpatients. Each item is rated on a scale of 1 to 5, with a total of 20 items and a maximum score of 100 points. Scores above 95 are considered satisfied, scores between 90 and 95 are deemed basically satisfied, and scores below 90 indicate dissatisfaction.
