Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of health education based on the Internet in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) .Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020, convenience sampling was used to select 296 patients with RA in Xinxiang Municipal Central Hospital. According to the random number table method, the patients were divided into the control group and the observation group, each with 148 cases. The control group conducted routine health education, and the observation group implemented health education based on the Internet. The treatment compliance, Chronic Disease Self-Management Behavior Scale, the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) , and Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28) scores were compared between the two groups after intervention.Results:The treatment compliance of the observation group was 46.62% (69/148) , which was higher than 12.84% (19/148) of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . After the intervention, the self-management score and scores of all dimensions of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, and the SF-36 score was higher than that of the control group, and the DAS 28 score was lower than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Health education based on the Internet can improve the treatment compliance, self-management ability and quality of life of RA patients, and reduce the disease activity.
