Abstract: Abstract: Objective To explore the effect of family rehabilitation on growth and development of children with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods 80 children with moderate HIE were divided into control group (n=40) and observation group (n=40). The control group received routine intervention and nursing, and the observation group accepted family rehabilitation in addition. Mental development index (MDI) and psychomoter developmental index (PDI) were compared when they were 3 and 6 months old with intellectual development testing, and their development quotients (DQ) were compared at the age of 1 year. Results The MDI and PDI scores were higher (P<0.01) in the observation group than in the control group when they were 3 and 6 months old. The DQ were higher (P<0.05) in the observation group than in the control group when they were 1 year old. Conclusion Family rehabilitation can promote the development of intelligence in children with HIE.
