The Effects of Health Education and the Sunrise Model of Nursing Care on Blood Pressure Control and Psychological Status in Elderly Patients with Hypertension.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine 2024 April 27
OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to investigate the effect of health education and a positive attitude nursing model on blood pressure (BP) control and psychological status in elderly patients with hypertension (HTN).
METHODS: A total of 80 elderly patients with HTN in the Affiliated Hangzhou First People's Hospital in China were selected as the study participants. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 40 patients in each group. The control group received the routine nursing intervention, while the observation group received health education and the positive attitude nursing intervention based on the nursing care in the control group. The BP control effect, changes in systolic and diastolic BP, psychological status and nursing satisfaction were compared in the 2 groups.
RESULTS: The BP control rate in the control group was 77.5% and was 95.0% in the observation group, which was significantly better (P < .05). Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in average systolic and diastolic BP between the 2 groups (P > .05); after the intervention, average systolic and diastolic BP in the observation group were significantly lower than in the control group (P < .05). Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SDS) scores between the 2 groups (P > .05). After the intervention, the SAS and SDS scores in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group (P < .05). The nursing satisfaction in the control group was 75.0% and was 95.0% in the observation group, which was significantly higher (P < .05).
CONCLUSION: Compared with routine nursing intervention, the health education and positive attitude nursing intervention can further improve BP control, psychological status and satisfaction and recognition level of elderly patients with HTN; it can be an important clinical nursing intervention.
