Abstract：Objective:To evaluate the effect of discharge planning services applied for high risk diabetic foot pa-tients.Methods:A total of 80 cases of high risk diabetic foot patients were randomly divided into control group and experimental group,40 cases in each.The patients in control group received conventional diabetes education and follow up;the patients in experimental group received diabetes education management of discharge plan-ning services,and the intervention time was 6 months.The blood glucose,ankle brachial index,quality of life and foot care compliance rate of patients were compared between both groups.Results:After the intervention, fasting blood glucose,postprandial 2 h blood glucose,glycated hemoglobin and ABI of patients in experimental group were improved significantly compared with that in control group(P <0.05);disease dimension,social di-mension,satisfaction dimension score and quality of life score in experimental group were better than that in control group(P <0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference in physiological dimensions score, psychological dimension score and social dimension score(P >0.05);foot care compliance rate of patients in ex-perimental group was significantly higher than that of control group(P <0.01).Conclusion:The discharge plan-ning service can effectively improve level of blood sugar control of the patients,improve their quality of life and foot care compliance rate.
