Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of self-management intervention on medical waste disposal for patients with viral hepatitis at home.Methods Totally 116 patients with infectious hepatitis who used home injection were selected and divided into the control group (n=54) and the observation group (n=62) according to the order of admission. Patients in the control group were given routine education, while patients in the ob-servation group were given self-management intervention on the basis of routine education. Patients' knowledge about medical waste and self-management status about medical waste disposal in two groups were compared. Results Three months after intervention, the awareness rate of patients on medical waste in the observation group was (13.21±5.31) point and (7.52±3.80) point in the control group (t=6.547,P<0.01). The self-man-agement of medical waste disposal in the observation group was better than that of the control group (χ2=6.640, P<0.01).Conclusions Self management intervention is helpful in improving the standard of medical waste disposal in patients with viral hepatitis at home.
