Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the effects of psychological intervention based on timing theory on the psychological state and self-efficacy of patients with chronic periodontitis.
MethodsEighty patients with chronic periodontitis were selected and divided into two groups according to the time order of admission.Forty patients from May 2018 to May 2019 and 40 patients from June 2019 to May 2020 were divided into the control group and observation group, respectively.The control group was given the routine nursing intervention, and the observation group was given psychological intervention based on timing theory.The disease knowledge mastery, psychological statestate-trait anxiety questionnaire(STAI) and center for epidemiologic studies depression scale(CES-D), periodontal indexgingival bleeding index(BI), periodontal pocket depth(PD), plaque index(PLI) and attachment level(CAL), self-efficacy, periodontal health(OHIP-14) points and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
ResultsAfter intervention, the levels of BI, PD, PLI and CAL in observation group were lower than those in control group(P < 0.01), and the mastery of health knowledge in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group(P < 0.01).After intervention, the scores of STAI and CES-D in observation group were lower than those in control group(P < 0.01), the self-efficacy in observation group was higher than that in control group(P < 0.01), and the OHP-14 scores of physiological disorders, psychological disorders and physical pain in observation group were lower than those in control group(P < 0.01).After intervention, the nursing satisfaction in observation group was better than that incontrol group(P < 0.01).
ConclusionsThe targeted psychological guidance based on timing theory can inhibit the negative psychological feelings of patients with chronic periodontitis, improve the level of health knowledge, enhance the sense of self-efficacy, help to improve the periodontal index of patients, promote the oral health and improve the nursing satisfaction.
