Objective To explore the effects of nursing model of peer education based on Wechat platform on blood glucose, quality of life and nursing satisfaction of diabetic patients.
Methods The data of 80 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were retrospectively analyzed and divided into peer education group(n=42)and traditional nursing group(n=38)according to different nursing modes. The peer education group was given peer education based on Wechat group, and a multi-dimensional, all-round and one-stop predictive nursing model was adopted. The traditional nursing group was treated with traditional nursing mode. Fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), quality of life and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared 12 months after discharge.
Results At 12 months after discharge, the levels of fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and HbA1c in the peer education nursing group were lower than those in the traditional nursing group (P < 0.001); the score of Quality of Life Questionnaire-short version (WHOQOL-BREF) in the peer education group was significantly higher than that in the traditional nursing group (P < 0.001); the nursing satisfaction of the peer education group was 97.62%, which was higher than 78.95% of the traditional nursing group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion The nursing model of peer education based on Wechat group can effectively stabilize blood glucose level and improve the long-term self-management ability, thereby improving the quality of life and nursing satisfaction.
