Effect of programmed nursing combined with cognitive behavioral intervention on clinical nursing effect and neurological function of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of programmed nursing combined with cognitive behavioral intervention on clinical efficacy and neurological function of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS In this retrospective study, 96 patients with ICH admitted to our hospital were enrolled and divided into a programmed group and a joint group, with 48 cases in each group. Patients in the programmed group were treated with programmed nursing while those in the joint group were given cognitive behavior intervention based on programmed nursing, for 28 days. The Fugl-Meyer (FM) Assessment Scale was used to evaluate the motor function of patients, the Barthel index to analyze the activities of daily living (ADL), and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) to assess the neurological function. The quality of life of patients was evaluated by the World Health Organization quality of life Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), and the nursing satisfaction of patients or their families was investigated by the self-made satisfaction scale. The incidence of adverse reactions during treatment was recorded and compared. RESULTS FM Assessment Scale and Barthel index did not differ significantly between the two groups before nursing (tFugl-Meyer =0.059, tBarthel =0.033, both P>0.05); after nursing, the two scores increased in both groups, with higher scores in the joint group (tFugl-Meyer =3.331, tBarthel =2.735, both P 0.05); after nursing, however, the NIHSS score decreased and the GOS score increased in both groups, with statistically significant differences between the two groups (tNIHSS =5.158, tGOS =5.303, both P<0.05). The total effective rate in the joint group was significantly higher than that in the programmed group (91.67% vs. 77.08%; χ2=4.511, P=0.034). No significant difference was observed in the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Brief Version (WHOQOL BREF) score between the two groups (t=0.049, P=0.960) before nursing; after nursing, the score increased significantly in both groups, with a significant difference between the two groups (t=15.970, P<0.001). The satisfaction was 95.83% in the joint group, which was higher than that of 83.33% in the programmed group (χ2=3.913, P=0.048). The joint group also had fewer adverse reactions than the programmed group (χ2=7.401, P=0.007). CONCLUSION Programmed nursing combined with cognitive behavioral intervention can improve the clinical efficacy of patients with ICH, improve limb motor ability, and reduce neurological deficits, with high safety.
