Effects of Health Education Based on Cross-Theoretical Model Combined with Whole-Course Systematic Rehabilitation Training on Self-Efficacy and Mouth Opening Difficulty in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Radiotherapy Patients
Objective To explore the effects of health education based on cross-theoretical model combined with whole-course systematic rehabilitation training on self-efficacy and mouth opening difficulty in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)treated with radiotherapy.Methods 96 NPC radiotherapy patients treated in Linyi Cancer Hospital from September 2021 to May 2023 were selected as the study objects and were divided into a control group and an observation group according to random number table method,with 48 cases in each group.The control group was treated with routine nursing,and the observation group was treated with health education based on cross-theoretical model combined with whole-course systematic rehabilitation training on this basis.The self-efficacy,mouth opening difficulty,training compliance and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results After intervention,the General Self-Efficacy Scale score of the observation group was(31.36±3.65)points,higher than(25.54±3.28)points of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the improvement of mouth opening difficulty in the observation group was better than that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After intervention,the scores of physical function,psychological function,social function and material life function in the Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 of the observation group were higher than those of the control group,and the differences between the groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).The training compliance of the observation group was 95.83%,higher than 83.33%of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of health education based on cross-theoretical model combined with whole-course systematic rehabilitation training in NPC radiotherapy patients can improve their self-efficacy,training compliance,mouth opening difficulty and quality of life.
