Objective: To investigate the effects of KAP model on self-efficacy, hope level and quality of life in stroke patients. Methods: A total of 72 patients with stroke hemiplegia were randomly divided into KAP pattern observation group (KAP group) and routine stroke nursing and health education group (control group) (n=36 each). In the 3 days before admission and 3 days before discharge from hospital, we compared the intervention effects of two groups of patients by using the stroke self-efficacy questionnaire (SSEQ), HERTH hope index, Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS QOL). Results: In the absence of KAP model nursing intervention, there was no significant difference in self-efficacy, hope level and quality of life between the two groups. After applying routine health education method and KAP model education, the self-efficacy, hope level and quality of life in the two groups increased, but the difference was more obvious in the KAP group than in control group (P<0.01). Conclusion: KAP model education can effectively improve the self-efficacy and hope level of stroke patients, improve the quality of life and promote rehabilitation. |
