ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of continuous nursing on the psychology and quality of life of patients with mild traumatic brain injury.Methods:A review of 120 patients with mild traumatic brain injury who were hospitalized in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2016 to December 2019 were selected. According to the order of admission, sample numbers were drawn from the random number list and entered into groups. There were 60 cases in the control group and the intervention group. The control group received routine general nursing, and the intervention group received continuous nursing. The Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), and Quality of Life Scale (SF-36) were used to evaluate the psychology and quality of life of patients on the day of discharge and one week, one month, and three months after discharge.Results:There was no significant difference in the scores of HAMA, HAMD and SF-36 between the two groups on the day of discharge ( P>0.05). The HAMA scores at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after the intervention of the intervention group were (18.2±8.6), (13.7±5.8) and (5.6±2.3), which were significantly lower than those of the control group (24.2±11.2), (20.4±8.2), (8.9±3.6), the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.32, 3.67, 4.13, P<0.05). The HAMD scores at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after the intervention of the intervention group were (24.3±7.1), (10.9±4.2), (6.8±2.9), which were significantly lower than those of the control group (28.6±8.5), (15.3±8.3), (14.8±4.6), the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.11, 2.57, 7.99, P<0.05). The SF-36 scores at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after the intervention of the intervention group were (77.2±8.9), (85.2±9.7), (87.8±12.9), which were significantly higher than those of the control group (72.3±8.2), (79.4±10.9), (81.0±11.5), the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -2.23, -2.14, -2.13, P<0.05). Conclusions:Continuing care can be extended to the patient's family, so that the health problems faced by the patient after discharge from the hospital can be effectively solved, relieve psychological pressure and improve the quality of life, and it is worthy of clinical application.
