Abstract:
Objective To construct mobile-health APP intervention program and investigate effects of mobile-health APP on the treatment compliance and quality of life in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis after endoscopic sinus surgery. Methods From March 2016 to May 2017,a total of 83 chronic rhinosinusitis patients hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 42 cases in the observation group and 41 cases in the control group. Patients in the control group were treated with standard discharged nursing, while patients in the observation group received additional mobile-health APP. The Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22), Treatment Compliance Questionnaire and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to evaluate patients in two groups before and after the intervention. Results At 3 months after discharge, SNOT-22 and VAS scores of patients in the observation group were lower than the control group; treatment compliance score of patients in the observation group was higher than the control group; there were statistically significant differences between two groups (P<0.01). Conclusions The mobile-health APP can improve treatment compliance, alleviate the nasal symptoms, and increase the quality of life of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis after endoscopic sinus surgery.
