Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of WeChat-based continuing nursing on swallowing function in partial laryngectomy patients. Methods From August 2016 to August 2018, we selected 64 partial laryngectomy patients of Beijing Tongren Hospital as subjects by convenience sampling. Patients were divided into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30) with the random number table. Control group adopted routine discharge instruction. Observation group carried out the intervention by WeChat platform. The intervention effects were evaluated with the swallowing rehabilitation training knowledge questionnaire for partial laryngectomy patients, swallowing function training compliance questionnaire, water swallow test (WST). Results Three months after discharge, the score of swallowing rehabilitation knowledge of patients in the observation group was higher than that in the control group; the swallowing training compliance in the observation group was better than that in the control group;the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). One and three months after discharge, the scores of WST of the observation group were lower than those of the control group with statistical differences (P＜0.05). Conclusions WeChat-based swallowing function continuing nursing for partial laryngectomy patients can enhance patients' swallowing rehabilitation training knowledge and compliance to improve patients' swallowing function which is worthy of clinical reference and application.
