The Effect of Family-centered Care Model on Sleep Quality and Medication Compliance of Children With Simple Congenital Heart Disease After Transcatheter Intervention

Abstract Objective: This study aimed to explore the effect of a family-centered care model on the sleep quality and medication compliance of children with simple congenital heart disease undergoing transcatheter interventional. Methods: 50 children with simple congenital heart disease who underwent transcatheter interventional in the cardiac surgery department of a provincial hospital in China from January 2020 to December 2020 were selected, and the children were randomly divided into the study group (n=25) and the control group (n=25) by a random number table method. The children in the control group were given routine care, and the children in the study group were given family-centered care on the basis of the control group. One month later, the sleep quality and medication compliance of all children were retrospectively studied. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to assess the children’s sleep quality, and the Chinese revised version of Morisky Medication Adherence Scale was used to evaluate the children’s medication compliance. Results: The sleep quality score of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the medication compliance score of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion: The family-centered care model was beneficial to improve the sleep quality and medication compliance of children with simple congenital heart disease after transcatheter intervention, and provided important reference information for the postoperative follow-up of such children.
