Abstract:
Objective To explore the application effect of broaden-and-build theory of gratitude on continued nursing of COPD patients with anxiety disorders, and to conduct corresponding positive psychological intervention. Methods Totals of 182 COPD patients with anxiety disorders were selected as research objects, with 91 from one hospital as observation group and the other 91 from another hospital as control group. COPD continued nursing program was conducted to patients in the control group, while besides that, positive behavior intervention was conducted to patients in the observation group, basing on the broaden-and-build theory of gratitude. The patients were surveyed by Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) before intervention, at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after intervention, with anxiety improvement compared and analyzed. Results The SAS scores in the observation group decreased significantly (P<0.01), while the scores in the control group were without any significant change (P>0.05); there was obvious interaction between time and intervention (P<0.01); it was found by further pairwise comparison that at 3, 6 and 12 months after the intervention, SAS scores were (45.85±3.88), (41.14±3.29) and (37.94±2.64) in the observation group, and (47.27±4.27), (45.22±3.85) and (43.47±3.44) in the control group (FInter-group=39.91, FTime=660.61, FInter-group×Time=23.14;P<0.01). The difference between the two groups increased as time went by. Conclusions Applying the broaden-and-build theory of gratitude in continued nursing of COPD patients with anxiety disorders can effectively improve their symptoms of anxiety.
