Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between self-management efficacy and medication adherence of the postoperative replacement therapy of thyroid cancer.Methods Of all the 230 thyroid cancer cases treated in the Thyroid Surgery Department of Ningbo No.2 Hospital from Jun.2014 to Jun.2016,125 cases were randomly chosen for the investigation by using the Chinese cancer self-management efficacy scale and the Morisky medication adherence questionnaire.Results The total postoperative alternative medication adherence rate was 47.28±11.49,among which the medium and low adherences accounted for 90.18%.The self-management efficacy score was 74.68±22.80 with scoring index of 62.58% at the relatively medium level.Statistical significance was observed between the self-management efficacy and the postoperative alternative medication adherence (P<0.01).Conclusion The self-management efficacy exerts significant effects on the postoperative alternative medication adherence of the thyroid cancer patients in promoting the postoperative recovery and improving the life quality.
