Abstract

Objective To study the effect of mind map on obstetric patients′ hospital admission guidance. Methods A total of 200 cases were chosen from January 2012 to January 2014 and randomly divided into the research group and the control group, with 100 cases in each group. The research group was given the hospital guidance with mind map, while the control group used the conventional oral hospital guidance. Knowledge awareness, treatment compliance and satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results The score of knowledge of the research group was (18.65±4.36), which was significantly higher than that of the control group (15.51±4.21), the difference was statistically significant (t=4.312, P<0.05). The score of satisfaction in the research group was (19.73±2.32), which was significantly higher than that of the control group (17.64±2.21), the difference was statistically significant (t=2.891, P<0.05). In the research group, 97 cases (97.0%) had regular diets, 95 cases (95.0%) had regular breaks and 98 cases (98.0%) took medicine regularly, which were significantly higher those of the control group (χ2=4.110, 4.769, 4.014, 5.025, respectively; P<0.05). Conclusions The effect of using mind map for obstetric patients′ hospital admission guidance is remarkable, which is better than previous oral hospital guidance, so it is worthy of clinical promotion.
