Abstract:
Objective To investigate the demand of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) for transitional care service in a tertiary hospital of Shaanxi,in order to provide more reasonable and effective transitional care service measures for patients.Methods A total of 721 patients with CHD (two days before their discharge) in a tertiary hospital of Shaanxi were selected from May to October 2015,and were investigated by using self-designed transitional care questionnaire.Results There were 50.3% of patients with CHD willing to accept the transitional care service and only 0.8% of them not willing to receive the transitional care service. There were 51.2% of the patients willing to accept the telephone follow-up from the ward,and 60.5% of them willing to get other transitional care services,including the guidance of self-monitoring vital signs, guidance of diet and moderate exercise,guidance of disease recurrence prevention,attentions of life work after discharge,and first-aid knowledge. There were 88.8% of the patients using the mobile phone as the main communication tools. There were 34.4% of patients who need the telephone follow-up from the ward and 35% of them willing to receive text message alerts for one month. There were 53.7% of the patients who can accept the cost of transitional care service less than 10 yuan per time,and 50.3% of them who can accept the cost less than 30 yuan per hour.Conclusions The patients with CHD have great demands for the transitional care service. The transitional care should be established and developed according to patients′ demand after discharge,so as to meet discharged patients′ demand for transitional care.
