Brief Summary:
This study aimed to investigate the long-term preventive and therapeutic effects of a health belief model (HBM)-based nursing intervention compared to routine care in patients with moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) after surgery. The study assessed impacts on sleep parameters (Apnea-Hypopnea Index, Oxygen Desaturation Index, sleep quality via PSQI), self-management abilities, quality of life, OSAHS recurrence rate, and patient satisfaction.
Detailed Description:
A total of 120 post-surgery patients with moderate to severe OSAHS were recruited and assigned to either a control group (n=60) receiving routine postoperative care or an observation group (n=60) receiving a health belief model-based nursing intervention in addition to routine care. Routine care included general postoperative education for OSAHS, dietary, and exercise guidance with monthly phone follow-ups. The HBM intervention, lasting one year, focused on perceived susceptibility (assessment, psychological intervention), perceived severity (education on risks), perceived benefits (weight/BP monitoring, dietary/exercise guidance, sleep posture aids, daily diary), and perceived barriers (frequent phone follow-ups, psychological support). Outcomes were measured at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months post-surgery, including polysomnography, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), self-management ability questionnaires, quality of life questionnaires, OSAHS recurrence, and patient satisfaction surveys.
