  • Study on the Effect of Orem's Self-care Model in School-age Children with Asthma

    ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of Orem's self-care model in school-age children with asthma. MethodsSeventy-four children with asthma treated between March 2012 and June 2014 were divided into observation group (n=37) and control group (n=37) randomly. Orem's self-care model was applied in the observation group, while routine nursing was carried out in the control group. We observed the pulmonary function, therapeutic compliance and quality of life in children of both the two groups before and one year after treatment. ResultsOne year after treatment, forced expiratory volume in one second and peak expiratory flow increased significantly (P<0.05), and increase in the observation group was significantly more than that in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significant increased treatment compliance rate (P<0.05). Pediatric asthma quality of life questionare scale results showed that one year after treatment, the two groups got significantly increased scores in the dimensions of emotion, symptom and activity (P<0.05), and the scores were significantly higher in the observation group (P<0.05). ConclusionOrem's self-care model has a significant curative effect for the improvement of lung function in school-age children with asthma, which can promot the treatment compliance and quality of life of the patients.
