ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of "Internet +" continuous nursing on medication compliance of patients with severe osteoporosis.Methods:A retrospective comparative study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of patients with severe osteoporosis hospitalized in Pinghu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2017 to October 2019. A total of 120 patients with osteoporosis were included and divided into the continuous care group and routine care group using double-blind randomization method. The continuous care group was given "Internet +" continuous care, and the routine care group was given routine health education upon discharge. The compliance and Bone mineral density were compared at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after discharge.Results:Based on "Internet +" continue nursing group of patients discharged from hospital after 1, 3, 6, 12 months medication adherence scores respectively (6.92 ± 0.93), (6.72 ± 1.04), (6.28 ± 1.26) and (6.27 ± 1.21) points, routine nursing group, respectively (6.27±1.27), (5.55±1.24), (5.28±1.59) and (4.60±1.71) points, continuity of care compliance significantly better in routine nursing group, contrast at each time point in the 2 groups were statistically significant ( t values were 3.197-6.172, P<0.01). After 1, 3, 6 and 12 months of treatment, the bone mineral density of patients in the continuous care group was -2.97±0.10, -2.92±0.11, -2.88±0.11, -2.87±0.13, and that in the conventional care group was 2.99±1.08, 3.01±0.11, 3.02±0.11, 3.02±0.11. Bone mineral density in the continuous care group was significantly better than that in the conventional care group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups 1 month after treatment ( t value was 1.289, P>0.05), and there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment ( t values were 4.215, 5.992, 6.726, P<0.01). Conclusion:Continuous nursing based on "Internet +" can greatly improve the medication compliance of osteoporosis patients, effectively improve the bone mineral density of patients, reduce the incidence of brittle fracture, reduce the readmission rate of patients, and improve the quality of life of patients.
