Insights
The Chronic Disease Management Mode (CDMM) improved blood pressure and LDL in hypertension patients. This intervention also enhanced social and psychological well-being, demonstrating its effectiveness in comprehensive chronic disease care.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Public Health
- Nursing Science
Background:
- Hypertension necessitates ongoing management to mitigate complications.
- The Chronic Disease Management Mode (CDMM) was developed to enhance patient self-management.
- Evaluating CDMM's impact on care quality and clinical outcomes is crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess the quality of care and clinical outcomes of the CDMM compared to routine care for primary hypertension.
- To determine the effectiveness of CDMM in managing hypertension and its associated health parameters.
Main Methods:
- A randomized controlled trial involving 300 primary hypertension patients (>30 years).
- Intervention group received CDMM (nursing consultations, telephone, online support, education, referrals).
- Outcomes measured included blood pressure, LDL, BMI, waist circumference, psychological indicators, and quality of life.
Main Results:
- The CDMM group showed significantly lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) and LDL levels after one month.
- No significant differences were observed in BMI, UmAlb, or waist circumference between groups.
- The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in psychological indicators, social, and psychological function compared to controls.
Conclusions:
- CDMM provides clinically significant improvements in blood pressure and LDL for hypertension patients.
- The intervention effectively enhances social and psychological functioning in individuals with primary hypertension.
- CDMM represents a valuable approach to comprehensive hypertension management.
Objective:
Hypertension requires continuous and long-term care to prevent associated complications. Chronic disease management mode (CDMM) was developed to improve patients' self-management. We aimed to evaluate quality of care and clinical outcomes of CDMM versus routine care.
Methods:
300 patients aged >30 years with primary hypertension were randomly allocated to the CDMM intervention group (n = 162) or the usual care control group (n = 138). CDMM comprised nursing consultations, telephone contact, online WeChat link, health education, and appropriate referrals during hospitalisation and after discharge. QLICD-HY (V 2.0) scale was used to evaluate the quality of life. Care outcomes were biochemical parameters, body mass index, blood pressure levels, waist circumference, psychological indicators and quality of life assessed on admission (baseline) and one month post-care for both groups. Data were collected and analysed using SPSS 20.0.
Results:
After one month, the intervention group had 6 mm Hg (95% CI: -5.12 to -9.08) lower SBP and 0.6 mM/L (95% CI: -0.52 to -0.68) lower LDL than the control group. In terms of improvements in BMI, UmAlb or waist circumference, there were no differences between both groups. The intervention group scored better on psychological indicators than controls (P < 0.05), and scores reflecting social and psychological function in the intervention group were significantly higher than scores at baseline, and higher than scores of controls after one month (P < 0.05). In the control group, there was no statistically significant difference between the scores at baseline and after one month.
Conclusions:
Under CDMM hypertension care, improvement of blood pressure and LDL was clinically significant. Intervention care further improves social and psychological function among participants with primary hypertension.
