Research data show that the incidence of bladder tumors in China ranks first among malignant tumors of the urinary system and is on the rise . Muscle - invasive bladder tumor is a fatal malignant tumor, and radical cystectomy with urinary diversion is the main treatment method . After urinary diversion, patients rely on urostomy for urination for life, unable to control urine at will, and need to wear ostomy bags for life, resulting in self - image disorder. Urostomy brings a lot of troubles to patients and their families, increases the economic burden, especially makes young patients feel anxious about life, lose confidence in the future, and causes great psychological pressure . Due to the strong professionalism of stoma care, with the improvement of medical technology, the average hospital stay of patients after surgery is shortened, resulting in patients not fully mastering the knowledge and skills of urostomy care at the time of discharge, and their self - care ability is at a low level. They are prone to various health problems, which directly affects the quality of life of patients and their families . Health is an inevitable requirement for the all - around development of people. The "Healthy China 2030" Plan Outline emphasizes the concept of proactive health. Proactive health refers to long - term, continuous and dynamic tracking of an individual's behavior system, identification and assessment of one's own state, evolution direction and degree, selection of various elements of lifestyle as the main means, giving full play to one's subjective initiative, and conducting controllable interventions on human behavior to improve health behaviors. In 2017, the Ministry of Science and Technology issued a notice officially including proactive health in the special plan. The concept of proactive health management has become an important part of realizing the Healthy China strategy.
