Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects d community-based nursing intervention in people with prehypertention. Methods A total of 120 residents with prehypertension were randomly divided into intervention group (60 cases) and control group (60 cases). The intervention group received 1-month commuity-based nursing intervention including group education, individual living manner intervention and exercise guiding. No special measures were given to the control group. Behavior improvement scores, blood pressure and bodyweight index were measured before and after the intervention. Results The score of the intervention group was significantly lower than before intervention,and was significantly lower than that of the control group as well (T=18.01,1g 89,21.60,9.44;t =21.05,20. 48,10. 50,5. 57;P ＜0. 01). Behavior improvement scores,blood pressure and bodyweight index in the intervention group were significantly lower than those before intervention and those of the control group (T=4. 18,4.11,1.88;t =4.20,5.08,2. 15;P＜0. 01 or P＜0.05).Conclusions Community-based nursing intervention can lower blood pressure of people with prehypertension. It also has a great significance in preventing high blood pressure.
