Objective To explore the related risk factors of cerebrovascular disease induced cerebral microbleeds and its nursing strategies. Methods A total of 393 patients with acute cerebrovascular disease who were admitted to our hospital from January 2012 to January 2014 were selected. 146 patients who were hospitalized due to non-central ner-vous system disease at the period of time were selected as control group. Baseline data of patients were recorded, and regular MRI T2-weighted imaging were given to all patients. Incidence rate of cerebral microbleeds for patients with different types of cerebrovascular diseases was analyzed. Results Among 393 patients with acute cerebrovascular dis-ease, 206 patients were cerebral microbleeds. Incidence rate was different for different diseases. Incidence rate of hy-pertension was 47.20%, cerebral infarction was 45.98%, diabetes was 44.00%, atrial fibrillation was 50.00%, cerebral hemorrhage was 84.00%, TIA was 25.00%, and leukoencephalopathy was 63.24%. The incidence rate in the control group was 13.70%, except for TIA, the differences between the control group and other groups were statistically signifi-cant (P<0.05). Cerebral microbleeds were taken as dependent variables, and other risk factors were taken as independent variables. Leukoencephalopathy, hypertension, high cholesterol, asymptomatic lacuna cerebral infarction, cerebral bleeding and cerebral infarction were risk factors for cerebral microbleeds, in which low density lipoprotein was a pro-tective factor. 206 patients with cerebral microbleeds were given nursing care. 20 patients recovered and discharged, 129 patients got better, 40 patients were not recovered, 7 patients were transferred to other hospitals, and 10 patients died. The hospitalization time was 1 to 33 days, with an average of (15.3±2.3) days. Conclusion Incidence rate of cere-bral microbleeds for patients with cerebral infarction, cerebral bleeding and leukoencephalopathy is relatively high, and low density lipoprotein is the protective factors for cerebral microbleeds. Hypertension, asymptomatic lacuna cerebral infarction, cerebral bleeding, cerebral infarction, high cholesterol and leukoencephalopathy are risk factors for cerebral microbleeds. Scientific and proper nursing care for patients with cerebral microbleeds is able to significantly improve patients' recovery rate, which is worthy of further clinical promotion and application.
