An application effect study on the self-management of breast cancer patients by the establishment of the "fans" club informatization

Abstract

Objective To discuss the application effect of fans club informatization on the self-management of breast cancer patients. Methods A total of 240 breast cancer patients were equally divided into the experimental group and the control group by the random number table with 120 patients in each group. The control group was provided with routine health education, based on this, patients of the experimental group participated in the fans club. The compliance, tempering effect, readmission rate and the satisfaction degree were evaluated between the two groups one year later. Results A significant difference was observed between the two groups' compliance (t=11.08, P<0.01), with the experimental group graded 69.27±8.02 and the control group graded 48.76±7.51. Moreover, in the experimental group, the angel of abduction, anteflexion, rear protraction, medial rotation, lateral rotation were respectively (170.13±3.16)°, (172.45±1.94)°, (46.71±1.86)°, (81.30±2.47)° and (85.18±1.55) °,which were significantly higher than the control group (125.16±1.93)°, (136.28±4.67)°, (34.63±2.68)°, (61.59±1.71) ° and (85.18±1.55) ° (t=22.74-73.76, P<0.01). Further more, there were also remarkable differences (χ2=32.97, 54.21, 15.34, P<0.05) between the two groups on the consultative, readmission and the satisfaction degree, which in the experimental group were 91.67% (110/120), 81.67% (98/120), 96.67% (116/120), and in the control group were 55.83% (67/120), 47.50% (57/120), 84.17% (101/120). Conclusions The establishment of the fans club informatization remarkably improves the self-management of the breast cancer patients, which are worth popularizing.
