Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the effect of early rehabilitation nursing on secondary disturbance in hemiplegics after stroke.Methods140 patients were randomly divided into two groups , rehabilitation nursing group (70 cases) and control group (70 cases). Patients in the rehabilitation nursing group were given clinical treatment and regularly convalescent nursing, while those in control group were given clinical treatment and unguided self-training. Evaluation was performed in pre-treatment and 12 weeks post-treatment respectively.ResultsSecondary disturbance rate in the rehabilitation nursing group was significant lower than that in the control group (P<0.01). The motor scores and ADL scores measured by Barthel Index in both groups raised after 12 weeks treatment, but the scores in the early rehabilitation nursing group were obviously superior to those in the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionEarly rehabilitation nursing for hemiplegics afte sroke may prevent or lessen the secondary disturbance, as well as obviously improve motor function of the limbs and ADL.
