Objective:To explore the influencing factors of fear of falling in patients with first cerebral infarction in recovery period.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 221 patients with first cerebral infarction who were hospitalized and treated in Department of Neurology and Department of Cardiology in Qingdao Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from May 2017 to October 2019 were selected as research objects. Short Falls Efficacy Scale International (SFES-I) was used to evaluate the patients, and the influencing factors of the fear of falling in patients with first cerebral infarction in recovery period were analyzed.Results:The results of univariate analysis showed that SFES-I scores of patients with different ages, marital status, family monthly income, history of falls, number of chronic diseases, anxiety, depression, activity of daily living (ADL) limitation and walking ability had statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that five variables including age (65-80) , marital status, history of falls, anxiety, and depression were retained in the regression model, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Among them, the marital status of the spouse was the protective factors of fear of falling of patients ( OR<1) , while the other 4 factors were risk factors of fear of falling of patients ( OR>1) . Conclusions:Age, marital status, history of falling, anxiety, and depression are the influencing factors of falling fear in patients with first cerebral infarction in recovery period, so targeted nursing measures should be taken according to different characteristics of patients.

Objective:To explore the effect of "WeChat official account"+multidisciplinary team (MDT) cooperative nursing in discharged patients with cerebral infarction.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2020, 118 discharged patients with cerebral infarction were selected by convenience sampling from Qingdao Hospital affiliated to Shandong First Medical University as the research object. The patients admitted from January to December 2019 were taken as the control group, and the patients admitted from January to December 2020 were taken as the observation group, with 59 cases each. The control group was given routine intervention and follow-up after discharge. The observation group received "WeChat official account"+ MDT cooperative nursing on the basis of the control group. Both groups were intervened for three months. The Stroke Behavior Change Questionnaire, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) , Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) , Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) , compliance and adverse events of the two groups were compared before and after the intervention.Results:Before the intervention, there was no statistical difference between the two groups in the scores of Stroke Behavior Change Questionnaire, FMA, SDS and SAS ( P>0.05) . After the intervention, the scores of Stroke Behavior Change Questionnaire and FMA in the observation group were higher than those before the intervention and the control group, and the SDS and SAS scores were lower than those before the intervention and the control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.01) . The treatment compliance of the observation group was 94.92% (56/59) , higher than 81.36% (48/59) of the control group, with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:"WeChat official account" + MDT cooperative nursing can effectively improve the exercise behavior of discharged cerebral infarction patients, increase compliance, promote neurological recovery, alleviate negative emotions, and reduce the incidence of adverse events after discharge, which is worthy of clinical practice.
