Objective To investigate the influence of auricular acupressure combined with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)on swallowing function and neurological function in stroke pa-tients.Methods A total of 120 patients with dysphagia after stroke admitted to the hospital from January 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the research objects and divided into the control group,the auricular acu-pressure group,the rTMS group and the combined group according to the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group received routine care,the auricular acupressure group received auric-ular acupressure treatment on the basis of the control group,while the rTMS group received rTMS treatment,and the combined group received both auricular acupressure and rTMS treatment.All interventions lasted 4 weeks.Swallowing function was assessed before and after treatment using Functional Oral Intake Scale(FOIS),modified Mann Assessment of Swallowing Ability(MASA),and Water Swallow Test.Swallowing-related quality of life was evaluated before and after treatment by the Swallowing Quality of Life(SWAL-QOL)questionnaire.Neurological impairment was assessed before and after treatment using National Institu-tes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS).Results After treatment,FOIS and MASA scores in the four groups were higher than those before treatment,with the auricular acupressure group and the rTMS group showing higher scores than the control group,and the combination group significantly higher than the other three groups(P<0.05).The overall effectiveness rate for swallowing function in the combination group was 93.33%,significantly higher than 60.00%in the control group,63.33%in the auricular acupressure group,and 73.33%in the rTMS group(P<0.05),while there was no significant difference among the other three groups(P>0.05).After treatment,SWAL-QOL scores in the four groups were higher than that before treat-ment,with the auricular acupressure group and the rTMS group showing higher scores than the control group,and the combination group significantly higher than the other three groups(P<0.05).After treat-ment,NIHSS scores in the four groups were lower than that before treatment,and the combination group had significantly lower scores compared to the other three groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Auricular acupressure combined with rTMS could improve swallowing function and quality of life,and promote neurological function recovery in stroke patients.

Objective To explore the impact of nurse-led multidisciplinary collaborative nutrition inter-vention on the nutritional indicators in the patients with stroke.Methods A total of 100 patients with stroke admitted in this hospital from January to December 2020 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the observation group and control group by the propensity score matching,50 cases in each group.The control group was given the traditional nutrition intervention,and the observation group was given the nurse-led mul-tidisciplinary cooperative nutrition intervention.The blood,nutritional and biochemical indicators,physique monitoring indicators and nutritional risk indicators were compared between the two groups.Results The levels of total protein(TP),albumin(ALB),hemoglobin(Hb),prealbumin(PAB),body mass index(BMI),upper arm muscle circumference(AMC)and triceps skin fold thickness(TSF)on 21 d after admission in both groups were increased compared with those on 2,15 d after admission,and which on 15 d after admission were higher than those on 2 d after admission(P＜0.05),moreover the above indicators levels on 15,21 d after ad-mission in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05).Body mass index(BMI),upper arm circumference(AMC)and triceps skinfold thickness(TSF)in both groups on 21 d of admission were higher than those on 2,15 d of admission(P＜0.05).The nutritional risk screening 2002(NRS2002)score on 21 d after admission in the two groups were decreased compared with those on 2,15 d after admission,while which on 15 d after admission was decreased compared with that on 2 d after admission,moreover the NRS2002 score on 15,21 d after admission in the ob-servation group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Giving the nurse-led multidisciplinary cooperative nutrition intervention could im-prove the blood nutritional and biochemical indicators and physique monitoring indicators,and reduce the nu-tritional risk of the patients with stroke.
