ABSTRACT
Objective@#To understand the factors affecting the compliance of blood glucose monitoring in patients with type 2 diabetes in rural areas, and to provide evidence for improving the compliance of patients with blood glucose monitoring.@*Methods@#A method of phenomenological study in qualitative research was conducted to conduct deep semi-structured interviews on 43 patients with poor blood glucose compliance in type 2 diabetes in rural areas, and to analyze the collected data.@*Results@#Extracted five themes: bad experience affected compliance; lack of knowledge about blood glucose monitoring; economic and time was not sufficient; "long-term illness into a good doctor" overconfidence; social support uncertainty.@*Conclusions@#The status of blood glucose monitoring in rural type 2 diabetes patients is not optimistic. In order to improve the compliance of patients with blood glucose monitoring, nursing workers should pay attention to the mastery of blood glucose monitoring knowledge in rural type 2 diabetes patients, improve blood glucose monitoring methods and techniques, and give full play to the role of family doctors. Efforts to improve patient blood glucose monitoring compliance.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo explore the effects of health belief mode1 system nursing education on lymphedema risk-reduction behavior,incidence and quality of life in post-operation breast cancer patients.MethodsA total of 225 patients who were underwent surgery by inclusion criteria and then were randomly divided into the intervention group ( n =109 ) and the control group ( n =106 ).The control group was given routine education,while the intervention group was given health belief model system education in addition routine education.Patients were followed up for at least 12 months,and the implementation of lymphedema risk-reduction behavior,quality of life,and the incidence of lymphedema of two groups were compared.ResultsThe implementation of lymphedema risk-reduction behavior were higher in intervention group than that in control group with statistically significantly difference(P ＜ 0.05 ).The incidence of lymphedema was 16.5％ in intervention group,37.7％ in control group,the difference was significantly in two groups.Scores for general quality of life (107.81 ± 10.10),emotional well-being ( 19.72 ± 3.74 ),functional well-being( 18.58 ± 3.34 ),social/family well-being( 21.85 ± 3.69 ),concerns specific to breast cancer patients(24.47 ± 3.59) were higher in intervention group than those in control group( ( 101.07 ±10.54),(18.48 ± 3.63),(14.79 ± 3.22),(20.39 ± 4.82),(23.10 ± 4.78)) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Health belief model system nursing intervention can improve the implementation of lymphedema risk-reduction behavior,decrease the incidence of lymphedema and increase long-term quality of life of the breast cancer patients.
