Following the healing of venous leg ulcers, the primary problems for nursing and patients are adhering to compression therapy and preventing ulcer recurrence. As a result, it is important that patients comprehend their situation. The purpose of this study is to see how an educational nursing intervention affected compression therapy adherence and recurrence of venous leg ulcers in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers. A quasi-experimental design is used, including an intervention, a control group, and before and post-assessments. This study is conducted in one of Egypt's largest teaching hospitals associated with Menoufia University. A 20-month study included 80 adult patients with healed venous leg ulcers. Each participant is randomized to either a control (got regular leg ulcer information) or study (received educational interventions) group. The following tools are used in the study: bio-sociodemographic variables, knowledge evaluation, compression therapy adherence scale, and recurrence follow-up, after three, six, and twelve months of implementation. Furthermore, there is a statistically significant difference between the study groups during the pretest (r=0.885, 0.774, 0.477, p=0.002). The use of nurse education increased patients' understanding and adherence to compression treatment substantially. As a consequence, those with chronic venous leg ulcers may be able to avoid recurrent venous leg ulcers.

教育护理干预对加压治疗依从性和下肢静脉溃疡复发的影响：一项准实验研究

腿部静脉性溃疡愈合后，坚持加压治疗和预防溃疡复发是护理和患者面临的首要问题。因此，患者了解自己的情况很重要。本研究的目的是了解教育护理干预如何影响慢性下肢静脉溃疡患者加压治疗的依从性和下肢静脉溃疡的复发。使用准实验设计，包括干预、对照组以及前后评估。这项研究是在与梅努菲亚大学相关的埃及最大的教学医院之一进行的。一项为期 20 个月的研究包括 80 名腿部静脉溃疡已治愈的成年患者。每个参与者被随机分配到对照组（定期获得腿部溃疡信息）或研究组（接受教育干预）。研究中使用了以下工具：生物社会人口统计学变量、知识评估、加压疗法依从性量表，以及在实施三个月、六个月和十二个月后的复发随访。此外，在预测试期间，研究组之间存在统计学上的显着差异（r = 0.885、0.774、0.477，p = 0.002）。护士教育的使用大大提高了患者对加压治疗的理解和依从性。因此，患有慢性下肢静脉性溃疡的患者可能能够避免下肢静脉性溃疡复发。在实施三个月、六个月和十二个月后进行复发跟进。此外，在预测试期间，研究组之间存在统计学上的显着差异（r = 0.885、0.774、0.477，p = 0.002）。护士教育的使用大大提高了患者对加压治疗的理解和依从性。因此，患有慢性下肢静脉性溃疡的患者可能能够避免下肢静脉性溃疡复发。在实施三个月、六个月和十二个月后进行复发跟进。此外，在预测试期间，研究组之间存在统计学上的显着差异（r = 0.885、0.774、0.477，p = 0.002）。护士教育的使用大大提高了患者对加压治疗的理解和依从性。因此，患有慢性下肢静脉性溃疡的患者可能能够避免下肢静脉性溃疡复发。
