Abstract:
Objective To assess the effect of transitional empowerment education on the quality of life of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and to analyze the factors affecting the quality of life, so as to pro-vide clinicians with information on effective intervention strategy. Methods From January 2015 to June 2016, 155 IBD patients were randomly divided into traditional care group (n=78) and transitional empowerment educa-tion group (n=77). The patients in the traditional care group received clinic outpatient follow-up, and the patients in the transitional empowerment education group received follow-up led by IBD management team. IBD patients in the two groups were investigated with self-management ability questionnaire, self-efficacy scale, and quality of life questionnaire before discharge and the six month after intervention. Results After the sixth month, the total scores on self-management ability (t=7.219, P=0.000), self-efficacy (t=2.845, P=0.005) and quality of life (t=7.705, P=0.000) in the transitional empowerment education group were higher than those of the traditional care group. Conclusion The transitional empowerment education can improve self-management ability, self-efficacy, quality of life of IBD patients.
