Exploring the Knowledge-Attitude-Practice of the patients who inject LMWH at home after cesarean section and analyzing the influence factors to provide evidence for its popularization. A self-designed general data questionnaire and a questionnaire about patients’ Knowledge-Attitude-Practice were used to investigate 188 patients who inject LMWH at home after cesarean section, univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were adopted to explore the influence factors related to the level of KAP. The average score of the questionnaire on KAP of home injection of LMWH in 188 patients after cesarean section was (79.3817.54) (Total score 0-40). Education background, age and time of home injection were the influencing factors for the level of KAP of home injection of LMWH after cesarean section (all P<0.05). The studies showed that the average level of KAP of home injection of LMWH in patients after cesarean section was low, and patients lacked theoretical knowledge of home injection while the operation standardization was poor. Thus we should make the training more systematic and normative and provide pertinent guidance to strengthen patients’ KAP and improve home injection normative rate.
