Abstract
BACKGROUND
Purpura nephritis, also called Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis, is a systemic disease with small dead vasculitis as the main pathological change.
AIM
To observe the influence of transitional nursing activities on the compliance behaviors and disease knowledge of children with purpura nephritis.
METHODS
A total of 82 children with purpura nephritis were included and divided into a general nursing group (41 children) and transitional nursing group (41 children) using the envelope method. The general nursing group received routine nursing care, while the transitional nursing group received transitional nursing care. The behaviors, knowledge of the disease, and self-management ability of the two groups were evaluated after nursing care was provided.
RESULTS
The scores of four items (self-care ability, self-responsibility, health knowledge level, and self-concept) in the transitional nursing group were significantly higher than those in the general nursing group.
CONCLUSION
Transitional nursing can directly improve the disease knowledge level and self-management ability of children with purpura nephritis and effectively reduce complications.
