Application of mixed reality technology in health education in adolescents with neu-rogenic bladder
Objective To examine the effect of fluid management education based on mixed reality technology in adolescents with neu-rogenic bladder.Methods Eighty adolescents with neurogenic bladder were randomized into two groups,with 40 in each.The con-trol group received routine fluid management education using booklet,while the intervention group used mixed reality technology for education.Fluid management compliance,self-management ability,parent satisfaction with health education and the incidence of urinary tract infection(UTI)within two months after discharge were compared between the two groups.Results After the inter-vention,the intervention group had significantly higher fluid management compliance,self-management ability and parent satisfac-tion,compared with the control group(all P<0.05).The incidence of UTI was 20.00%in the intervention group and 27.50%in the control group,without significant difference(P>0.05).Conclusion Health education based on mixed reality technology is helpful to improve health-related behaviors and parent satisfaction in adolescents with neurogenic bladder,and it is possible to rela-tively reduce UTI within two months of discharge.
