Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: case group will receive re-education after leave hospital
The participants were randomly divided into re-education group and non re-education group according to the random number table. The re-education group will receive regular re-education not noly when they leave hospital but also after leave hospital in our preset time by telephone or wechat. The content of re-education includes diet form and diet structure,medication compliance and regularity, and recheck compliance, moderate exercise and so on
Contact patients by phone or wechat and guide them
No Intervention: control case group will receive no re-education after leave hospital
The participants were randomly divided into re-education group and non re-education group according to the random number table. without re-education group will receive regular re-education when they leave hospital.The content of re-education includes diet form and diet structure,medication compliance and regularity, and recheck compliance, moderate exercise and so on
