Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of psychological nursing intervention on mental health and quality of life for stroke patients with depression and anxiety. Methods Totals of 89 stroke patients with depression and anxiety were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group. The control group ( 44 cases ) was given routine nursing method, while the observation group ( 45 cases ) was given psychological nursing care based on the control group. The mental status was evaluated by HAMD, SAS and SDS scale, and the quality of life was evaluated by WHO-QOLs. The recovery of nerve function, mental status, life and nursing quality between groups were compared. Results Before the nursing intervention, the neurologic impairment score, HAMD score, SAS score and SDS score between groups had no significant difference ( P>0. 05). After the nursing intervention, the above scores of the observation group was decreased significantly, and the score of quality of life ( psychological, physiological, environmental and social relationships ) of the observation group were significantly improved (P<0. 05). The nursing satisfaction rate of the observation group was 93. 33%, which was significantly higher than 70. 45% of the control group (χ2 =5. 13,P <0. 05). Conclusions The psychological nursing intervention can help patients improve mental health and quality of life.
