ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the application effect of the wechat public platform in follow-up management of patients with moderate or severe craniocerebral injury.Methods 98 patients admitted in the craniocerebral department of our hospital from February to November 2014 were selected and divided into two groups by random number table method,with 48 cases in the control group and 50 cases in the observation group;the traditional follow-up management mode using telephone was adopted to patients in the control group,while the follow-up management mode using the wechat public platform was adopted to those in the observation group,with a follow-up period of 3 months;for patients in both groups,their activities of daily living (ADL) and exercise of self-care agency (ESCA) abilities before and after intervention,occurrence of adverse events and complications within the follow-up period,and their degree of satisfaction towards the follow-up management were collected.Results After intervention,ADL score,total scores of ESCA and total scores of satisfaction towards the follow-up management among patients in the observation group were 87.34±15.26,24.36±17.24 and 86.07±14.82,which were significantly higher than that among patients in the control group were 66.72±14.62,99.37±15.29 and 61.14±13.19 (t=7.941,7.982,6.962,all P ＜0.01);within intervention,the observation group had significantly lower total occurrence rate of adverse events and complications which was16.00％ (8/50) compared to the control group 39.58％ (19/48) (x2=6.824,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions By establishing the follow-up management mode for patients with craniocrerbral injury through the wechat public platform,effect of the follow-up management can be effectively promoted,prognosis of patients can be improved and patients' degree of satisfaction can be enhanced;it is worth of being further promoted clinically.
