Effect of periodic nursing interventions on improving compliance behavior and health status in long-term Hemodialysis patients
Periodic Nursing Interventions in Long-Term Hemodialysis Patients
Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of periodic nursing interventions on improving compliance behavior and health status in long-term hemodialysis patients.
Method: This was retrospective study. A total of 88 patients on long-term hemodialysis admitted to Qinhuangdao Haigang Hospital from January 2022 to April 2023 were randomly divided into the control group and the intervention group, who received routine hemodialysis nursing and periodic nursing interventions, respectively. Afterward, compliance behavior and health status were compared between the two groups, along with a comprehensive assessment of the health status using renal function indexes, complication rates, and anxiety and depression scores.
Result: Before nursing, no significant difference was observed in each index between the two groups (p> 0.05). After 16 months of nursing, the score of compliance behavior in the intervention group (88.68 ± 6.27) was significantly higher than that in the control group (70.91 ± 7.48) (p< 0.05), with the renal function indexes of BUN and SCr lower than those in the control group (p< 0.05). Meanwhile, the intervention group saw higher SAS and SDS scores than the control group (p< 0.05).
Conclusion: Periodic nursing interventions may effectively improve the compliance behavior and health status of patients, enhance the efficacy of hemodialysis treatment, and improve the quality of life of patients.
