Intervention effect of personalized discharge planning program based on information platform in children with bronchial asthma

Objective To explore the influence of personalized discharge planning program based on information platform on the recurrence rate, quality of life, frequency of acute onset, family members′ mastery of disease knowledge, and therapeutic satisfaction degree in children with bronchial asthma after discharge.

Methods A total of 121 children with bronchial asthma were selected and randomly divided into control group with 60 cases and observation group with 61 cases. After discharge, the children in the control group were conducted with telephone follow-up and out-patient follow-up according to the routine discharge plan, while the observation group was conducted with the personalized discharge planning program, and their disease conditions were tracked through information platforms such as WeChat groups or DingTalk APPs. The condition of disease control, quality of life, worsening of disease, family members′ understanding of disease knowledge, and satisfaction degree were compared between the two groups.

Results The day-time symptom score and night-time symptom score of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group, while the scores of 5 items of quality of life and the total score in the observation group were significantlyhigher than those in the control group (P < 0.05); in the observation group, the ratio of children with acute exacerbation was 3.28%, the ratio of children with hospitalization was 1.64%, which were significantly lower than 13.33% and 10.00% in the control group (P < 0.05); the family members′ mastery of disease-related knowledge in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group (P < 0.05); the satisfaction degree of family members in the observation group was 80.32%, which was significantly higher than 53.33% in the control group (P < 0.05).

Conclusion The personalized discharge planning program based on information platform can effectively control the disease condition of asthma children, improve quality of life, reduce the frequency of acute onset, enhance family members′ mastery of disease knowledge and increase treatment satisfaction degree.
