Abstract:
Objective? To explore the role of optimizing health education in regulating the use of antimicrobial agents for outpatient patients in infection department. Methods? Using convenience sampling method, 400 patients with moderate infection who needed intravenous antibiotics in the infectious Outpatient Department of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University from January to December 2017 were selected and divided into experimental group and control group with 200 cases in each group according to random number table method. The patients in the control group were given routine nursing care, while the patients in the experimental group were given optimized health education intervention on the basis of routine nursing care. After the treatment, the knowledge, compliance and long-term efficacy of antimicrobial drugs were compared between the two groups. Results? Before intervention, there was no significant difference in the knowledge of antimicrobial drugs between the two groups (P＞0.05); after intervention, the knowledge level of antimicrobial drugs in the two groups was improved, and the scores of the dosage of antimicrobial drugs, the principle of drug use, adverse reactions, emergency measures and the total score of knowledge in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group with statistically significant differences (P＜0.01). Compliance rates of drug use on time, reasonable diet, timely re-visit, smoking cessation and alcohol cessation in the experimental group were 95.0%, 93.5%, 97.0% and 96.0%, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (80.0%, 85.0%, 78.0% and 84.0%, respectively) with statistically significant differences (P＜ 0.01). After 6 months of intervention, the recurrence rate in the observation group was 4%, lower than the control group with 10%, and the difference was statistically significant (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? Optimized health education can effectively improve the knowledge level of antibiotics in outpatients of infectious department, improve the compliance of patients and reduce the recurrence rate, which is worthy of clinical application.
