Abstract
Objective: Our aim was to investigate the effect of health education and a positive attitude nursing model on blood pressure (BP) control and psychological status in elderly patients with hypertension (HTN).
Methods: A total of 80 elderly patients with HTN in the Affiliated Hangzhou First People's Hospital in China were selected as the study participants. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 40 patients in each group. The control group received the routine nursing intervention, while the observation group received health education and the positive attitude nursing intervention based on the nursing care in the control group. The BP control effect, changes in systolic and diastolic BP, psychological status and nursing satisfaction were compared in the 2 groups.
Results: The BP control rate in the control group was 77.5% and was 95.0% in the observation group, which was significantly better (P < .05). Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in average systolic and diastolic BP between the 2 groups (P > .05); after the intervention, average systolic and diastolic BP in the observation group were significantly lower than in the control group (P < .05). Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SDS) scores between the 2 groups (P > .05). After the intervention, the SAS and SDS scores in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group (P < .05). The nursing satisfaction in the control group was 75.0% and was 95.0% in the observation group, which was significantly higher (P < .05).
Conclusion: Compared with routine nursing intervention, the health education and positive attitude nursing intervention can further improve BP control, psychological status and satisfaction and recognition level of elderly patients with HTN; it can be an important clinical nursing intervention.

Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
