Abstract:Objective:To investigate the benefits of nursing care service in the assisted reproduction clinic to self-cycle-management and self-efficiency of the outpatients with infertility.Methods:We randomly divided 600 females preliminarily diagnosed with infertility into a control and an experimental group,288 in the former and 285 in the latter group excluding those whose husbands had azoospermia.For the women patients of the experimental group,we conducted nursing care intervention concerning related knowledge,skills,diet,excise,medication,and psychology,by one-to-one consultation,individualized or group communication,establishing files,telephone follow-up,and wechat guidance.After 3 months of intervention,we compared the compliance of medical visits,effectiveness of cycle management,sense of self-efficiency,satisfaction,and anxiety score between the two groups of patients.Results:In comparison with the controls,the patients of the experimental group showed significantly better knowledge about assisted reproduction and higher effectiveness of self-cycle-management,self-efficiency,and satisfaction (P < 0.05),but a markedly lower degree of anxiety (P < 0.05).Conclusion:Nursing care service in the assisted reproduction clinic can improve the compliance of medical visits,effectiveness of self-cycle-management,self-efficiency,and satisfaction and reduce the anxiety of the patients.
