Application Value of Information-Based Health Education and Continuity of Care in Patients With Peptic Ulcer

Abstract

Objective: This study is to assess the application value of information-based health education and continuity of care in patients with PU (peptic ulcer).Methods: Patients (116) with PU who have been treated in the hospital between January 2019 and October 2020 were taken as research objects and equally assigned to a control group and an observation group in a random manner. In contrast to the routine care applied to the control group, the observation group received information-based health education and continuity of care intervention. The clinical efficacy, the mastery of health knowledge, self-care ability, medication compliance, quality of life, mental state, and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Results: After the intervention, the total effective rate, health knowledge adequate rate, Exercise of Self-Care Agency (ESCA) scores of all dimensions, the MOS 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36) scores of all dimensions, medication compliance rate, and total nursing satisfaction of the observation group all notably exceeded those of the control group, with a p < 0.05. Patients of the group with continuity of care intervention showed lower Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores, as compared to the group with conventional care (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Information-based health education and continuity of care elevates the medication adherence and nursing satisfaction of patients with PU, enhances disease-related knowledge of patients and their self-care ability, and eventually ameliorates the quality of life and psychological state. It is worthy of clinical application.

Meta-Analysis on the Application Value of Collaborative Nursing in Postcolostomy Nursing of Patients with Colorectal Cancer

“…ESCA, developed on the basis of Orem's self-care theory, has been found to have high reliability and validity in several international studies [ 39 ]. Liu et al [ 40 ] showed that patients with peptic ulcer had significantly higher ESCA scores and enhanced self-care after informational health education and continuous care intervention. This is similar to the results of the present study.…”

Post-stroke experiences and health information needs among Chinese elderly ischemic stroke survivors in the internet environment: a qualitative study

“…These findings suggest that healthcare professionals must refine rehabilitation management programs for individual survivors to address specific rehabilitation needs effectively. The evidence suggests that health information education developed after assessing survivor goals is more effective than traditional health education ( Liu et al, 2021 ). The present study showed that because they usually have a sudden stroke onset and are not prepared for the change in their role from family laborer to family caretaker ( Chattopadhyay et al, 2017 ; Chen et al, 2021 ), their neurological and endocrine systems are strongly stimulated in adapting to the “new normal” experience of daily life, resulting in great psychological distress, such as feelings of guilt, social isolation, anxiety, and depression ( Ma et al, 2022 ), decreasing their motivation to search for health information.…”

Evaluation of Social Platform-Based Continuity of Care in Improving Cognitive and Prognostic Effects of Young Patients with Diabetic Retinopathy

“…Retinal hypoxia may be evident even before clinically detectable microvascular damage develops. 4 Complete clinical control of DR is currently unattainable. It has been shown in clinical research 5 that patients with diabetic disease often suffer from severe vision loss or DR due to factors such as poorly controlled blood sugar levels and vitreous blood accumulation caused by retinal detachment.…”
