ObjectiveTo explore the nursing intervention effect on pre-hypertension. MethodsA total of 240 prehypertension patients in our community from July 2012 to January 2013 were randomly divided into observation group and control group with 120 patients in each group. No intervention was carried out for the control group. Blood pressure profile was established for the observation group and health education, exercise intervention, diet and body weight intervention measures were also given to the patients in this group. The improvement of life behavior and blood pressure control, and the awareness of hypertension health knowledge were compared between the two groups. ResultsAwareness of the disease knowledge, risk factors, complications, prevention and treatment in the observation group was significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). After intervention, the improvement scores of diet control, exercise increase, smoking quitting and alcohol drinking control in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and body mass index after intervention in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionCommunity nursing intervention can increase the health knowledge in pre-hypertensive patients, help patients establish a good way of life and control blood pressure effectively, and reduce the incidence of hypertension.
In recent years, the prevalence of hypertension in China has gradually increased. Although the awareness rate, treatment rate and control rate of hypertensive patients in China have been significantly raised, the overall level is still lower than that of western developed countries. In order to improve the rate of family blood pressure control, real-time warning of patients’ overall blood pressure level to doctors and the implementation of doctor-side medical intervention to patients are becoming a necessary condition. At present, the maturing home blood pressure tele-monitoring (HBPT) enhances the feasibility of increasing the interaction between doctors and patients. Randomized controlled trial evidence proves that remote monitoring can improve patient compliance and improve target blood pressure control rate. This paper introduces the relevant research results of HBPT in recent years, aiming to explore the advantages of HBPT for hypertension management and the prospect of further promotion and application.
