METHODS: A two-arm, single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted on 168 children with BO and their families from January 2022 to October 2022. Families were randomly divided into Internet-based follow-up group and conventional follow-up group with a ratio of 1:1. Scores of family management measures (FaMM), 8-item of Morisky Medication Adherence (8-MMAS) and BO clinical symptoms of both groups were collected at three points of time: the day of discharge (T1), 3 months after discharge (T2), and 6 months after discharge (T3). The changes of each group due to intervention were compared by repeated-measures ANOVA.
RESULTS: 90 families completed the trial, including 48 in the Internet-based follow-up group and 42 in the conventional follow-up group. The results showed a significant difference in the group-by-time interaction on the scores of Child\'s Daily Life, Condition Management Ability and Parental Mutuality (p < 0.05). No group-by-time effect was found on the scores of View of Condition Impact and Family Life Difficulty. Scores of BO clinical symptoms and MMAS-8 showed intra-group, inter-group, and group-by-time effects.
CONCLUSIONS: The Internet-based follow-up platform can empower caregivers in enhancing effective family management, improving medication compliance in children with BO, and relieving patients\' clinical symptoms.
BACKGROUND: Chinese Clinical Trials Registry of ChiCTR2200065121 (04/28/2022).
方法:双臂,本研究于2022年1月至2022年10月对168名BO儿童及其家庭进行了单盲随机对照试验.家庭随机分为网络随访组和常规随访组,比例为1:1。家庭管理措施(FaMM)的分数,在三个时间点收集两组的8项Morisky药物依从性(8-MMAS)和BO临床症状:出院当天(T1),出院后3个月(T2),出院后6个月(T3)。通过重复测量方差分析比较各组因干预引起的变化。
结果:90个家庭完成了试验,其中互联网随访组48人,常规随访组42人。结果显示,不同时间的群体互动对儿童日常生活得分有显著差异,病情管理能力与父母相互关系(p<0.05)。在“状况影响”和“家庭生活困难”的评分上没有发现按时间分组的影响。BO临床症状和MMAS-8评分显示组内,组间,和按时间分组的效果。
结论:基于互联网的随访平台可以授权护理人员加强有效的家庭管理,改善BO儿童的用药依从性,缓解患者的临床症状。
