“…Zuo Yaqin 17 and others use knowledge explanations and action demonstrations for health education, which improves patients' awareness and understanding of diseases, enhances patients’ intuitive feelings and promotes patients to master disease knowledge and improves cognitive ability. Cho Lee and others believed 18 that video teaching is another effective learning tool, while Hashim 19 believed that written health education is more effective. In addition, with the development of ‘Internet + Nursing Services’, it is also possible to make full use of the public account and medical APP platform 20 to integrate the principles, actions, taboos and precautions of ankle pump exercises for patients to check at any time.…”
