Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of the family nursing intervention on the families of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.Methods The total of 77 families of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder were randomly divided into observation group ( n =38 ) and control group ( n =39).The families in the observation group received nursing intervention by combining use of collective intervention and individual intervention methods.The families in the control group received no additional intervention except for picking up the children as usual.The Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90),Fatigue Scale-14 (FS-14) and Generic Quality of life inventory-74 were used for assessing.Results The mental health status was improved in observation group after the nursing intervention.There was a significant difference in symptom checklist score between observation group and control group ( 141.27 ± 30.28 vs 164.13 ± 29.81 ; t =2.35,P ＜ 0.01 ) ; The score of physical fatigue,mental fatigue score and total score in the observation group (3.66 ±1.64,4.14 ± 1.79,4.97 ± 1.96) were lower than in the control group (6.69 ± 2.06,4.19 ± 1.28,10.88 ±2.32,respectively),there were statistically significant differences ( t =2.01,P ＜ 0.05 ; t =2.00,P ＜ 0.05 ;t =3.82,P ＜ 0.01 ) ; Significant improvements in the overall quality of life score was found in the observation group.The score of comprehensive assessment of quality of life questionnaire in the observation group was superior to that in the control group regarding the physical function ( 67.52 ± 10.34 vs 57.11 ± 9.97 ),psychological function of dimension(75.36 ± 12.84 vs 52.23 ± 11.59 ),social function dimensions ( 62.53 ±11.01 vs 51.63 ± 10.75),and the differences were statistically significant (t =2.94,5.57,2.91 ;P ＜0.01 ).Conclusions Family nursing interventions can improve the quality of life among families of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder by psychological and fatigue adjustment.
