Effect of Caregiver Empowerment Education Model Guided by Phase Change Theory Combined with Individual Diet plan on Hemodialysis Pa-tients
Objective:To explore the effect of caregiver empowerment education model guided by phase change theory combined with in-dividual diet plan on hemodialysis patients.Methods:A total of 39 hemodialysis patients admitted from March 1 to December 31,2021 were included in the control group and given routine intervention.A total of 41 hemodialysis patients admitted from January 1 to December 31,2022 were included in the observation group,and the caregiver empowerment education model guided by phase change theory combined with individual diet plan was implemented.The nutritional status(blood calcium,blood phosphorus,hemoglobin,plasma albumin),illness perception(BIPQ),coping style(MCMQ),self-management behavior(HD-SMI)and quality of life(KDQOL-36TM)were compared be-tween the two groups before intervention and 2 months after intervention.Results:After 2 months of intervention,the levels of blood calcium and blood phosphorus in the two groups were decreased compared those before intervention(P<0.05),and those in the observation group were lower than the control group(P<0.05);the levels of Hb and Alb were increased(P<0.05),and those in the observation group were higher than the control group(P<0.05).After 2 months of intervention,the BIPQ scores,avoidance and yield scores of the two groups were lower than those before intervention(P<0.05),and those of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).After 2 months of intervention,the FACE scores,HD-SMI scores and KDQOL-36TM scores of the two groups were higher than those before intervention(P<0.05),and those of the observation group were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The caregiver empowerment education model guided by the phase change theory combined with individual diet plan can improve the nutritional status of hemodialysis patients,improve their illness perception,promote patients to adopt positive coping styles,and can improve their self-manage-ment ability and quality of life as well.
