Behavior changes intervention based on the Multi-Theory Model for patients with post-stroke fatigue
Objective To explore the effects of behavior changes intervention based on the Multi-Theory Model(MTM)for patients with post-stroke fatigue.Methods A total of 74 inpatients with post-stroke fatigue in neurology department were divided into a con-trol group and an experimental group chronologically,with 37 patients in each group.The control group received routine care,while the experimental group additionally received behavior changes intervention based on the MTM for 3 months.The Fatigue Se-verity Scale(FSS),the Stroke Self-efficacy Questionnaire(SSEQ)and the Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale(SS-QOL)were used to evaluate the two groups before the intervention,1 month and 3 months after the intervention.Results Totally 36 patients in each group completed the study and follow-up.The time effect,group effect and group by time effect between the two groups in the scores of FSS,SSEQ and SS-QOL were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).One month and 3 months after the intervention,all the indexes in the experimental group were significantly better than those of the control group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The behavior changes intervention based on the MTM can effectively alleviate patients'fatigue severity,and improve their self-efficacy and quality of life.
