Abstract:
Objective To study the state-trait anxiety and behavior life style in patients with abrupt deafness before hyperbaric oxygen therapy and analyze the cause of abrupt deafness and untoward behavior life style for treatment. Methods Patients with abrupt deafness (60 cases) were investigated about their condition of state-trait anxiety and behavior life style by state-trait anxiety inventory (S-AI) and self-designed questionnaires. Results The score of S-AI was (47.55±8.32),which was higher than that of normal healthy people (39.31±8.66).Untoward behavior life style existed in many patiants,such as unreasonable diet,high mental pressure, unbalance of mental state, no disciplinarian in work and rest, un-healthy behavior life style, unmerited health seeking behavior, etc. Conclusions Nurses should supply health education about relative knowledge selectively to patients with abrupt deafness in order to increase the health seeking behavior and establish healthy behavior life style for them.
