Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of knowledge,attitudes,and practices (KAP) health education model on the self-care skill among cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC),and to implement the effective health education methods.Methods Totals of 66 cases of cancer patients with PICC were randomly divided into control group(n =35 ) and the experimental group (n =31 ).The control group received routine health education whlie the experimental group received KAP health education regarding strengthened self-care knowledge of PICC,establishment in self care attitude or belief,promotion in self care practice.Before and after intervention,we apply the Exercise of Self-care Agency Scale (ESCA) to asses the extent to which individuals take action toward their health care.Results After intervention,experimental group was higher than the control group significantly in ESCA total score [ ( 117.07 ± 13.75 ) vs ( 101.14 ± 11.56) ],self care skills [ (31.52 ± 3.67 ) vs (26.74 ± 3.46) ],self care responsibility [ (22.39 ± 3.89 ) vs ( 16.03 ±2.80) ],self-concept [ ( 23.39 ± 3.36 ) vs ( 18.83 ± 3.43 ) ],and the difference was statistically significant (t=-3.717,-5.242,-7.685,-5.434,respectively;P<0.05).Conclusions KAP health education model appears effective in improving the self-care agency among cancer patients with PICC.
