Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of the family nursing intervention on treatment of children with asthma, and explore the effect of family nursing intervention on the pulmonary function and quality of life in asthmatic children. Methods A total of 260 children with asthma were recruited at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from July 2012 to July 2015. They were randomly divided into observation and control groups with 130 cases in each group. The control group were given routine nursing and regular treatment, and the observation group were received additional family nursing intervention management at the same time. We use Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) and pulmonary function testing to evaluate the influence of family nursing intervention on treatment effect and quality of life of asthmatic children. Results The total effective rate was 93% in the observation group and was 65% in the control group (P＜0.05) . The pulmonary function and quality of life were significant higher in the intervention group compared with the control group after intervention. Parents’satisfaction was significantly higher in the intervention group (P＜0.05) . Conclusion Family nursing intervention is an effective mode of management of children with asthma that can obviously improve pulmonary function and quality of life of asthmatic children. Moreover, family nursing intervention also contributes to raising parents'satisfaction.
