RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Ischemic stroke, a severe disease with high disability and mortality, causes an overburden in society and demands more effective treatments. Early rehabilitation and nursing intervention (ERNI) helps the postoperative recovery of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. However, the effect of ERNI on the recovery of people after ischemic stroke remains unclear. METHODS: Patients were treated with the ERNI program; subsequently, Mini-Mental State Examination, National Institute of Health stroke scale, Fugl-Meyer Assessment Scale, Daily living activity assessment, and Quality of life test were performed after the treatment of ERNI to evaluate the influence of ERNI on the cognitive function, motor function, and life quality of patients after ischemic stroke. RESULTS: We observed that following the treatment of ERNI, cognitive, neurological, and motor functions, daily life qualities, and life quality in the ERNI-treated group were significantly better than that in the control group. CONCLUSION: ERNI promoted the recovery of neurological function and improved the life qualities of patients after ischemic stroke.
