ABSTRACT

Objective We aimed to discuss the model of health education for patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi and validate its effect. Methods We divided 490 patients who were to undergo extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi into the control group (230 cases) and the test group (260 cases). The test group received health education according to the model of health education. While the control group adopted routine health education method. The ache during operation, treatment effect and incidence rate of complications in the two groups were evaluated and compared. Results The incidence rate of pain, complications and effective rate in the test group was 6.92%, 4.99% and 99.23%, which were better than those of the control group (28.26%, 16.09% and 96.09%), P＜0.01. Conclusions Establishment of the model of health education could improve the treatment effect of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, reduce the incidence rate of complications and the relase rate of urinary calculi.
