Description

Patients who have had their spleen removed need to be vaccinated and educated to prevent overwhelming post splenectomy infection. We provide patient education on infection prevention after splenectomy during hospitalization. In this study, we conducted an interview survey of two patients who had undergone patient education and asked about their awareness and behavior regarding prevention of overwhelming post splenectomy infection at least one year after discharge. The patients and their families were aware that the spleen had been removed, and shared information about splenectomy with their family doctor and school using the tools provided. It is suggested that it is necessary to educate patients including the family to prevent overwhelming post splenectomy infection and to consider practical education.
