Effects of intensive self-care intervention in patients undergoing day self-retaining laryngoscope vocal polyp resection

Abstract

Objective To explore the effects of intensive self-care intervention on self-care agency, reactive mode, psychology and voice functional recovery in patients undergoing self-retaining laryngoscope CO2 laser vocal polyp resection after leaving hospital. Methods From January 2016 to June 2017, 75 patients with selective self-retaining laryngoscope CO2 laser vocal polyp resection were selected. From January to September 2016, a total of 37 patients with conventional nursing were selected as control group. From October 2016 to June 2017, a total of 38 patients accepting intensive self-care intervention were chosen as observation group. The self-care agency, reactive mode and voice functional recovery of patients in two groups were compared at different times. Results The score of self-care agency of two groups all increased one and three months after leaving hospital compared with that on admission (P 0.05) . Conclusions Intensive self-care intervention can improve the self-care agency, positive coping style and promote voice functional recovery in patients undergoing self-retaining laryngoscope CO2 laser vocal polyp resection.
