Objective To explore the application effect of interactive health education combined with Orem theory in-tervention in elderly patients with bone tumors.Method A total of 82 elderly patients with bone tumors who underwent limb salvage surgery were divided into observation group(n=40,interactive health education combined with Orem theory intervention)and control group(n=42,conventional intervention)according to different intervention methods.The self-ef-ficacy[Chinese-version strategies used by people to promote health(C-SUPPH)],self-care ability[exercise of self-care agency scale(ESCA)],quality of life[quality of life instruments for cancer patients(QLICP)],satisfaction and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups.Result After intervention,the dimensional scores of C-SUPPH,ESCA and QLICP in two groups were higher than those before intervention,the dimensional scores of C-SUPPH,ESCA and QLICP in observation group were higher than those in control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The total satisfaction rate in observation group was higher than that in control group,the length of hospital stay was shorter than that in control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Interactive health education combined with Orem theory intervention can effectively improve the self-care ability,self-efficacy and quality of life of elderly patients with bone tumors,shorten the length of hospital stay,and the satisfaction of patients is high.
