Abstract:
Objective To explore the application effect of WeChat combined with integrated diagnosis and treatment nursing for discharged patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in stable stage.
Methods A total of 80 patients with stable COPD discharged from our hospital from March 2019 to March 2020 were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 40 cases in each group. The control group was given routine treatment guidance and nursing, while the observation group was given WeChat combined with integrated diagnosis and treatment nursing. The scores of pulmonary function indexes before and 6 months after intervention, treatment compliance and nursing satisfaction after 6 months of intervention of two groups were compared.
Results After 6 months of intervention, the forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and ratio of FEV1 to FVC of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P < 0.05). COPD Assessment Test (CAT) questionnaire scores of the two groups were lower than that before intervention(P < 0.05). The total compliance rate and total nursing satisfaction of the observation group were 95.00% and 97.50% respectively, which were significantly higher than 55.00% and 52.50% of the control group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion WeChat combined with integrated diagnosis and treatment nursing has significant advantages in patients with COPD in stable phase, which can improve the treatment compliance rate, lung function and quality of life.
