Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of early pulmonary rehabilitation on stroke associated pneumonia by the ICU specialist nurses.
Methods:Totally 40 cases of stroke patients from January 2017 to June 2017 were selected into the control group, and 44 cases of stroke patients from July 2017 to December 2017 were set as the intervention group. The patients in the control group were given routine care, and those in the experimental group were given early pulmonary rehabilitation in addition to routine care by ICU specialist nurses. The clinical outcome such as the occurrence of SAP, the length of intensive care units (ICU) stay and the duration of mechanical ventilation were compared.
Results:The incidence of SAP in the intervention group was 13.64%(6/44), significantly lower than that 32.50(13/40) in the control group (χ2=4.26, P<0. 05), and the length of ICU stay the duration of mechanical ventilation were (5.59±3.93), (3.2±0.84)days, which were lower than (8.50±7.89), ((13.13±9.58)days in the control group (t=2.106,2.678, P<0.05) , the prealbumin levels was (219.43±59.71) mg/L,higher than (192.20±54.85) mg/L in the control group (t=-2.170, P<0.05) , the difference was statistically significant.
Conclusion:Early pulmonary rehabilitation can effectively reduce the incidence of SAP and better clinical outcome. And we also should improve the SAP risk assessment and the management of swallowing and nutrition.
