Abstract:
Objective To probe into the effect of early nursing intervention in promoting wake and complications of patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Methods 65 severe traumatic brain injury patients were divided into the control group (30 cases) and the intervention group (35 cases) randomly. The control group used conventional neurosurgical care, while in addition to conventional care, the inter-vention group also adopted early nursing intervention. The glasgow coma scale (GCS) score as well as gas-treintestinal bleeding, joint stiffness, central nervous fever and secondary infection went through comparative analysis in the two groups before and after treatment of patients using t test and χ2 test. Results Com-pared with the control group, the GCS score after treatment was higher, and the complications of gastroin-testinal bleeding, joint stiffness, central nervous fever and secondary infection were lower in the intervention group. Conclusions Early nursing intervention on patients with severe traumatic brain injury can accel-erate the awakening and reduce the occurrence of complications, it has practical significance to improve quality of life and reduce the financial burden of patients.
