Application of health education in elderly hypertension care
老年高血压护理中健康教育的应用

摘要

目的 探讨在老年高血压护理中应用健康教育的临床效果。方法 选取2024年5月-2025年5月前来我院接受治疗的老年高血压患者作为研究对象，共80例，随机分成对照组与观察组，均为40例。对照组采用常规护理，观察组在对照组常规护理的基础上实施系统性健康教育，比较两组患者护理后的血压控制情况、自我管理能力评分（采用高血压自我管理行为量表）及生活质量评分（采用生活质量综合评定问卷）。结果 观察组患者血压控制优良率为92.5%（37/40），显著高于对照组的70.0%（28/40）；在自我管理能力和生活质量评分上，观察组高于对照组（P<0.05）。结论 在老年高血压护理中应用健康教育可显著提高患者的血压控制效果，增强自我管理能力，改善生活质量。

Abstract

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of health education in elderly hypertension care.
Methods A total of 80 elderly hypertensive patients treated at our hospital between May 2024 and May 2025 were randomly divided into a control group (40 cases) and an observation group (40 cases). The control group received standard care, while the observation group received systematic health education in addition to standard care. Post-treatment comparisons were conducted on blood pressure control, self-management ability scores (using the Hypertension Self-Management Behavior Scale), and quality of life scores (using the Comprehensive Quality of Life Assessment Questionnaire).
Results The observation group achieved an excellent blood pressure control rate of 92.5% (37/40), significantly higher than the control group's 70.0% (28/40). Both self-management ability and quality of life scores showed greater improvement in the observation group (P<0.05).
Conclusion   Implementing health education in elderly hypertension care can significantly enhance blood pressure control, improve self-management capabilities, and elevate patients' quality of life.
