Impact of follow-up information platform combined with health education on compliance behavior and cardiac function in patients with chronic heart failure / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effect of follow-up information platform combined with full-course health education on compliance and cardiac function in patients with chronic heart failure.Methods:A total of 150 patients with chronic heart failure treated in He′nan People′s Hospital between November 2018 and November 2019 were selected for study. Patients were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, and each group had 75 cases. The control group received routine health education intervention, and the observation group implemented follow-up information platform combined with full-course health education intervention. The intervention time was 6 months, and then the compliance behavior, cardiac function and quality of life of the two groups of patients were compared.Results:The overall compliance rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( Z value was -5.634, P<0.01), and the total compliance rate of the observation group was 92.00% (69/75), which was significantly higher than 74.67% (56/75) of the control group ( χ2 value was 8.112, P<0.01). After the intervention, both the 6-minute walking test and the left ventricular ejection fraction in the observation group were (482.75±81.45) m, (48.34±6.10)%], which were significantly higher than (406.92±68.20) m, (39.61±5.73) % of the control group ( t values were 6.182, 9.034, P<0.01). After the intervention, the physical limitation, psychological mood, disease symptoms, and social relationship scores of the observation group patients were (11.00±1.58), (10.06±1.55), (6.06±1.29), and (5.09± 1.14) points, which were significantly lower than (17.15±1.90), (11.79±1.55), (9.52±1.23), and (8.09±1.02) points of the control group ( t values were 6.835-21.533, P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with conventional health education, the whole course of health education combined with the follow-up information platform is beneficial to improve the compliance rate, quality of life and cardiac function of patients with chronic heart failure.
