Effects of three-subject double-track interactive nursing intervention model on self-management and liver function in patients with cirrhosis

Abstract

Objective To explore the effects of three-subject double-track interactive nursing intervention model on self-management and liver function in patients with cirrhosis. Methods A total of 120 cirrhosis patients who were discharged from Nanxishan hospital from January 2015 to June 2016 were divided into control group and observation group according to random number table, 60 patients respectively. Patients in control group received routine double-track nursing interventions, while patients in observation group were treated with additional three-subject double-track interactive nursing intervention mode. The self-management ability and liver function of patients were compared between two groups before and after intervention. Results There was no significant difference in self-management ability between two groups before the intervention. The score of self-management ability of patients in observation group was significantly higher than that of control group after the intervention (P<0.05) . Before the intervention, no differences were observed in TBIL, ALT, ALB, A/G values between two groups. However, TBIL, ALT, ALB, A/G values of patients in observation were better than those of control group after the intervention, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05) . Conclusions Three-subject double-track interactive nursing intervention model effectively improves the self-management ability and facilitates the recovery of liver function of patients with cirrhosis.
