Abstract

BackgroundTo observe the effect of phased written health education combined with healthy diet on the quality of life of patients after heart valve replacement.MethodsOne hundred-thirty patients who underwent heart valve replacement surgery in our hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were enrolled as the research subjects. They were randomly divided into study group (65 patients, phased written health education combined with health Diet) and control group (65 cases, routine health education). The drug compliance and the degree of anticoagulant drugs knowledge were compared between the two groups in the first and second stage rehabilitation and the recovery stage. The health behavior ability and quality of life at different phases were also observed.ResultsDuring the first and the second stage rehabilitation, and the recovery stage, the drug compliance of the study group was superior to that of the control group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the knowledge of anticoagulant drugs in the study group was better than that in the control group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Before intervention, there was no significant difference in health behavior ability and quality of life between the two groups (P > 0.05). The healthy behavior ability of study group for each stage was superior to the control group, the difference was significant (P < 0.05). The healthy behavior ability and quality of life showed the same results with statistical significance (P < 0.05).ConclusionThe use of phased written health education combined with healthy diet in patients after heart valve replacement can effectively improve patients’ medication compliance, anticoagulant drugs knowledge, healthy behavior ability and quality of life at different stages, and is worthy of clinical application.

Highlights

To observe the effect of phased written health education combined with healthy diet on the quality of life of patients after heart valve replacement
Phased written health education is designed for patients according to the characteristics of different stages after surgery, and combined with healthy diet to obtain the expected results [4,5,6] This study will explore the effect of a combination of phased written health education and healthy diet on the quality of life of patients after heart valve replacement
On the basis of the control group, the study group was given phased written health education combined with healthy diet

Summary

Introduction

To observe the effect of phased written health education combined with healthy diet on the quality of life of patients after heart valve replacement. Bleeding and embolization caused by improper use of drugs account for 75% of long-term postoperative complications, which have a serious impact on postoperative quality of life, and are the leading cause of death [3] how to effectively improve the treatment compliance of patients after cardiac valve replacement is one of the key topics of clinical research. Health education is often given to patients after heart valve replacement to enable them to understand anticoagulant drugs, but it has certain limitations and cannot improve patients’ treatment compliance, affecting the quality of life of patients. Phased written health education is designed for patients according to the characteristics of different stages after surgery, and combined with healthy diet to obtain the expected results [4,5,6] This study will explore the effect of a combination of phased written health education and healthy diet on the quality of life of patients after heart valve replacement
