Effect of symptom management theory on self-efficacy,hope level and quality of life in patients with glioma
Objective To explore the effect of symptom management theory(SMT)on self-efficacy,hope level and quality of life in patients with glioma.Method A total of 96 patients with glioma were divided into control group and in-tervention group according to different intervention programs,with 48 cases in each group.Patients in control group were treated with routine nursing intervention,and patients in intervention group were treated with nursing intervention based on SMT theory.The self-efficacy[chronic disease self-efficacy scale(CDSES)],hope level(Herth hope scale)and quality of life[the MOS 36-item short form health survey(SF-36)]were compared between the two groups before and after inter-vention.Result After intervention,the scores of emotional control,reasonable rest,pain and discomfort control,self-care,medical compliance management and health problems in both groups were higher than those before intervention,and scores of emotional control,reasonable rest,pain and discomfort control,self-care,medical compliance management and health problems in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistical-ly significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the scores of positive attitude towards reality and future,taking positive ac-tions and maintaining close relationships with others and total scores in both groups were higher than those before inter-vention,the scores of above items and total score in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the scores of physiological function,physiologi-cal role,bodily pain,general health,vitality,social function,emotional function and mental health of the two groups were higher than those before intervention,and the scores of physiological function,physiological role,bodily pain,general health,vitality,social function,emotional function and mental health of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The nursing intervention program based on SMT theory can improve the self-efficacy,hope level and quality of life of patients with glioma,which is worthy of further promotion and application.
