Hypertension is one of the most common clinical cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, with the obvious increase of the elderly population in Our country, the number of elderly hypertensive patients is also significantly increased, according to the relevant reports show that the incidence of hypertension in the elderly over 60 years of age in China is about 49%, so it is urgent to solve the problem of hypertension in the elderly. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of nutritional intervention with Roy adaptation model on quality of life in elderly patients with hypertension. Objective: To investigate the effect of nursing intervention on the quality of life of elderly patients with hypertension. Methods: 60elderly patients with hypertension admitted to local hospitals from February 2019 to February 2020 were randomly divided into 30 control groups and 30 study groups. The control group used routine nursing, the study group in the control group on the basis of comprehensive nursing, comparative analysis of the quality of life of the two groups. The experimental data showed that each step of nursing work was completed according to the procedure of Roy adaptation mode. The adaptability of the patients was evaluated before discharge, and the quality of life in the hospital was evaluated by the health examination scale. The results showed that the quality of life in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P > 0.05). Conclusion: The nursing effect of comprehensive nursing for elderly patients with hypertension is obvious, which can significantly improve the quality of life, and can be widely used in clinical practice.
