系统健康教育对青光眼患者生活质量的影响

目的探讨系统健康教育对青光眼患者生活质量的影响。方法将42例青光眼患者随机分为干预组(22例)和对照组(20例)。对照组采用常规青光眼治疗和护理,干预组在此基础上进行心理、治疗、饮食、生活以及疾病知识等方面系统健康教育。比较入院时(教育前)和3个月后(教育后)两组患者生活质量得分情况。结果教育后干预组患者症状和体征、精神心理状态、生活能力、社会功能、自我护理能力等方面与对照组比较,差异有显著性意义(均P<0.01)。结论系统健康教育可明显提高青光眼患者的生活质量。

Effect of Systemic Health Education on Quality of Life in Glaucoma Patients

Objective To explore the effect of systemic health education on quality of life in patients with glaucoma. Methods Forty-two patients with glaucoma were randomly divided into two groups: an intervention group (n=22) and a control group (n=20). Patients in the control group only received routine treatment after the patients were admitted into the hospital. Patients in the intervention group received comprehensive and systematic health education in psychology, diet,living and knowledge of diseases in addition to routine treatment. Scores of quality of life were recorded for both groups at the time when the patients were admitted into the hospital and 3 months after hospitalization. The t-test was employed to compare the results of the two groups. Results The quality of life of patients in the intervention group was significantly improved as compared to that of the control group (P<0.01, for all). Conclusion Comprehensive and systematic health education can significantly improve the quality of life in patients with glaucoma.
