Impacts of self-management education on blood pressure and volume control of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis

Objective To explore the effects of self-management education on blood pressure control and volume among adult patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.Methods Fifty-six adult patients who received hemodialysis during February 2012 and February 2013 in our hospital were enrolled in this study (male 31,female 25,age 29 to 75 years old,mean age (59± 6) years old).Besides routine health care,all the participants were educated for health knowledge and disease management skills.Blood pressure and volume were compared before and 3 months after intervention.Student' s t test was used for data analysis.Results Blood pressure and volume control were improved after 3 months' self-management.Body weight gain and antihypertensive medication dose were declined (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Self-management could effectively improve health behaviors of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis,significantly increase patients' self-management ability,and effectively control blood pressure and volume load.
