Abstract:
Objective To discuss the effect of positive nursing intervention on quality of life of patients with post-herpetic neuralgia.Methods 80 cases of patients with post-herpetic neuralgia from January 2011 to June 2012 were chosen and randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group,each with 40 cases.Both groups received neural stem closure therapy,and the treatment group was given positive nursing intervention in addition,including humane care,synchronized implementation of home care guidance by caregivers,hope nursing and telephone interviews.NRS and SF-36 were used to evaluate the curative effect and quality of life,and indexes were compared between two groups.Results The excellence rates 30 and 60 days after treatment were 100% in the treatment group,obviously higher than 85.0% in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =5.1,7.6,respectively; P < 0.05).There was no statistically significant difference of SF-26 between two groups before treatment (P > 0.05).30 days after treatment,the score of physical function,body pain and general health was (56 ± 22.5),(79 ± 11.9),(73 ± 17.8) in the treatment group,higher than (44 ± 16.7),(63 ± 21.2),(59 ± 16.7) in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (t =2.71,4.16,3.63,respectively; P < 0.05).60 days after treatment,the score of physical function,body pain and general health was (68 ± 21.7),(82 ± 14.8),(79 ± 18) in the treatment group,higher than (46.6 ± 14.3),(70 ±22.3),(66 ± 18.2) in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (t =5.21,2.84,3.21,respectively; P < 0.05).Conclusions Positive nursing interventions can significantly improve the curative effect and quality of life of patients with post-herpetic neuralgia,which can also improve the quality of medical care obviously.
