ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of WeChat follow-up intervention on medical advice compliance and quality of life of female patients after receiving heart valve replacement.

MethodsA total of 96 female patients receiving heart valve replacement from January 2018 to September 2019 were selected and divided into a control group and an intervention group. The control group was given routine care, and the intervention group was given WeChat follow-up intervention on the basis of routine care. The scores of medical advice compliance, nursing satisfaction, and self-management ability scores, and Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOLI-74) scores were compared between the two groups.

ResultsAfter 3 months of follow-up intervention with WeChat, the medical advice compliance of the intervention group was better than that of the control group ( χ²=4.016, 4.142, 4.904, 5.056, all P<0.05). The self-management ability score, quality of life score and score of satisfaction to nursing of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group, and the difference was significant (P<0.05).

ConclusionWeChat follow-up intervention was applied to female patients after receiving heart valve replacement, which improved the medical advice compliance, self-management, quality of life and satisfaction to nursing of the patients.
