The Study On The Effect Of Health Education For Lowering SUA Level Of Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia Patients

Objectives:This study aims to know the situation of hyperuricemia in part of Changchun maleadults. Through the health education to enhance the awareness of asymptomatic hyperurice-mia related knowledge and to strengthen self-efficacy, so as to change unhealthy dietary andliving habits, to control serum uric acid and enhance health situation.Methods:This study belongs to control study. All male staff of the enterprises and institutionswho had taken part in physical examination at a hospital medical center from March2012toMay2012were included in the study. We selected six units as our study object, set as theexperimental group and control group respectively. After filtered according to the inclusioncriteria and exclusion criteria,103cases of asymptomatic hyperuricemia patients in total,53cases of experimental group and50cases of control group, aged20~82years old. Six mon-ths health education for the experimental group and regular education for the control group.Before and after the intervention, questionnaires survey, biochemical indicators of measure-ment and physical examination were conducted on two groups. Using EpiData3.02andSPSS17.0statistical software for data entry and analysis.Results:(1) Six units of male medical personnel for the study, a total of1012cases, including204cases of hyperuricemia patients, accounting for20.16%of the total number.(2) Baseline survey a total of103patients were included, the experimental group53cases and the control group50cases. When the study was completed, the experimental group50cases and the control group48cases. The rate of lost to follow-up(5.66%vs4.00%) in thetwo groups were similar.(3) Before health education, general data of two groups of hyperuricemia patients hadno statistical difference(P>0.05).(4) Before the intervention, body mass index, waist circumference, serum uric acid,blood pressure, blood lipid, fasting plasma glucose between two groups, there were nostatistically significant difference(P>0.05); after the intervention, the difference between theexperimental group and the control group on body mass index or waist circumference was not statistically significant(P>0.05), serum uric acid was significant(P<0.01). After sixmonths, the experimental group body mass index, waist circumference, serum uric acidcompared with their pre-intervention both had significant difference(P<0.01). In the controlgroup, body mass index, waist circumference, serum uric acid compared with theirpre-intervention had no statistically significant differences(P>0.05).(5) In terms of disease knowledge scores qualified rate, comparison of the two groupshad no statistical significance before intervention(P>0.05); after the intervention, thedifference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.01); before and after theintervention, the experimental group had significant difference(P<0.01), the control grouphad no statistically significance(P>0.05).(6) In terms of dietary changes, comparison of the two groups had no statisticalsignificance before intervention(P>0.05); after the intervention, every aspects on thedifference between the two groups had significant difference(P<0.01). Before and after theintervention, all terms on the experimental group had significant difference(P<0.01); thecontrol group the difference of drinking water was significant(P<0.01).(7) The baseline on exercise had no statistical significance(P>0.05). After the interven-tion, the difference between the two groups had significant difference(P<0.01). Before andafter the intervention, the experimental group had significant difference(P<0.01), the controlgroup had no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).(8) Before and after the intervention, the difference between the two groups had nostatistical significance(P>0.05) on quitting smoking and quitting alcohol. Before and afterthe intervention, the experimental group had no statistical difference(P>0.05), the controlgroup had no statistical difference(P>0.05).(9) The baseline on general self-efficacy had no statistical significance(P>0.05). Afterthe intervention, the difference between the two groups had significant difference(P<0.01).Before and after the intervention, the experimental group had significant difference(P<0.01),the control group had no statistical difference(P>0.05).Conclusion:(1) Health education can improve male patients with asymptomatic hyperuricemiaawareness of the disease and strengthen self-efficacy.(2) Health education makes male patients asymptomatic hyperuricemia change un-healthy dietary habits and lifestyle actively, in turn has positive impact on controlling serumuric acid. (3) Health education is economic and effective. It’s necessary to attach great importan-ce to early screening and health education on asymptomatic hyperuricemia people.
