Abstract:

Objective To investigate the effect of Comprehensive Reminder System Based on Health Belief Model (CRS-HBM) on health knowledge, belief, behaviors, utilization of health services and clinical outcomes in stroke patients after discharge. Methods From February, 2015 to March, 2016, 174 stroke patients with hypertension were divided into control group (n = 87) and intervention group (n = 87). The control group received routine stroke health education, and the intervention group received the CRS-HBM program in addition. They were investigated with Stroke Knowledge Questionnaire (SKQ), Short Form Health Belief Model Scale for Stroke Patients (SF-HBMS-SP), Health Behavior Scale for Stroke Patients (HBS-SP), and the utilization of health services and clinical outcomes (emergency, re-hospitalization, recrudescence and death) were recorded six months after discharge.Results A total of 75 cases in the control group and 76 in the intervention group finished the research. The total scores of SKQ (U = 903.000), SF-HBMS-SP (t = -9.099) and HBS-SP (t = -7.786) were more in the intervention group than in the control group (P< 0.001). The outpatient re-visit rate was more in the intervention group (97.37%) than in the control group (76.00%) (P< 0.001). The incidence of emergency, re-hospitalization, recrudescence and death were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion The application of CRS-HBM can improve the health knowledge, belief, behaviors for stroke patients after discharge, but there are not enough effects on clinical outcomes.
