Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of the online health management platform on cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) at interval of chemotherapy. Methods Totally 120 patients at interval of chemotherapy who received PICC maintenance in the Section for Outpatients, Wuxi No.2 People's Hospital between January 2016 and February 2017 were selected by convenience sampling, and divided into an observation group (57 patients) and a control group (63 patients) according to the random number table. Patients in the control group received conventional health education and follow-up visits after being discharged, while patients in the observation group received health tracking management with communication and management groups on WeChat, PICC blog and BBS integrated in the online health management platform. Results Totally 3 patients in the observation group (5.26%) and 12 patients in the control group (19.04%) showed phlebitis, and the patients in the observation group showed lower severity than the patients in the control group (Z/χ2=-2.171, 5.199; P<0.05). No patients in the observation group showed obstruction, lower than the patients in the control group (χ2=3.885, P<0.05). The patients in the observation group showed higher scores in knowledge related to self-care, monitoring behavior and psychological belief as well as a total score than the patients in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The PICC online medical management platform makes intervals of chemotherapy more scientific and standardized, and effectively enhances patients' ability to manage catheter by themselves outside hospital.
