Research on self-care ability of patients with dry eye disease and analysis of its influencing factors
Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2024, Vol 39, Issue 1
Abstract
[Objective:] To understand the self-care ability of patients with dry eye and analyze its influencing factors. [Methods:] A total of 293 patients with dry eye were selected from Zhongshan Opthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University from February 2022 to June 2022, the general data Questionnaire the general self-efficacy Scale and the self-care ability Scale survey were collected. [Results:] A total of 293 patients with dry eye were surveyed, and the self-care ability score was 113.34±9.98, which was at the medium level. The total score of self-care ability, the scores of self-concept, self-care responsibility, health knowledge level and self-care skills of patients with dry eye were positively correlated with the scores of self-efficacy (r=0.421, all P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that cumulative screen usage time>10 hours/day, comorbid systemic diseases, and low self-efficacy scores were risk factors for self-care ability in patients with dry eye (P<0.05). [Conclusions] The self-care ability of patients with dry eye disease is at a medium level, and still needs to be strengthened. Medical workers should focus on patients with prolonged screen usage, comorbid systemic diseases, and low self-efficacy in their work, and tailor relevant nursing strategies to improve their self-care abilities.
