ABSTRACT
Objective We discussed the influence of health education on uncertainty of patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. Methods We divided 60 patients who were to undergo extracorporeal shock wave lithitripsy into the control group and the test group with 30 eases in each group. The test group implement systemic education according to the health education model. The control group received routine health education. Uncertainty about illness was measured by Mishel uncertainty in illness scale (MUIS) on admission, 1 day before lithotripsy and on discharge from hospital in the two groups. Results The illness uncertainty of the test group 1 day before lithotripsy and on discharge from hospital decreased evidently compared with that of on admission (P<0.01). The decrease amplitude was statistically different from that of the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Health education through application of health education model could significantly decrease the illness uncertainty of patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.
