Efficacy analysis of psychological intervention on the basis of medication for the treatment of moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis

Abstract

Objective:To observe the effect of psychological intervention on the basis of drug therapy for moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis.Method:Sixty patients with moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis were randomly divided into two groups: control group and study group. The control group was only given pure drug therapy. The study group was given drug treatment and psychological intervention. Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. Before and after the treatment, the patients were graded by SAS, SDS and RQLQ to assess their anxiety and depression, as well as changes in the quality of life. Finally, a statistical analysis was performed.Result:After the treatment, the SAS and SDS scores of the control group and the study group were lower than those scores before treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The SAS and SDS scores were lower in the study group than in the control group after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).After the treatment, the scores of RQLQ in the control group and the study group were lower than those scores before treatment. and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment with two regimens, the scores of the sleep, the non-nose/eye symptoms, and the emotion were lower in the study group than those scores in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:To improve the mental disorder and the quality of life of the moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis patients, on the basis of drug treatment along with psychological intervention is more effective than using medical treatment.
