With the development of information technology, it has become a part of people's lives. WeChat is not only a popular chatting tool in daily life but can also be used in the medical field. Functional dyspepsia is a common pediatric disease, with complex pathogenic factors, which are usually attributed to abnormal gastric acid secretion and gastrointestinal dysfunction. In our research, we aim to investigate the effects of whole-course continuous nursing intervention combined with a nursing practice teaching method on the quality of life (QOL) of children with functional dyspepsia and parents' satisfaction. One hundred and twenty children with functional dyspepsia admitted to our hospital (February 2019-February 2020) were retrospectively analyzed and equally divided into the experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG) according to the order of admission. The CG received whole-course continuous nursing intervention, and the EG received whole-course continuous nursing intervention combined with the nursing practice teaching method. Children's psychological states and QOL and parents' satisfaction of both groups were compared. After discharge, compared with the CG, the negative emotion scores in the EG were remarkably lower (P < 0.001). After discharge, compared with the CG, the QOL scores (P < 0.001), the proportion of children with good and excellent QOL (P < 0.05), and parents' satisfaction (P < 0.001) in the EG were remarkably higher. For children with functional dyspepsia, whole-course continuous nursing intervention combined with the nursing practice teaching method can improve their negative emotions, QOL, and parents' satisfaction, which should be popularized in practice.
