Objective To investigate the effect of staged rehabilitation nursing on limb motor function and neurological function in patients with craniocerebral trauma.
Methods Totally 80 patients with craniocerebral trauma were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in the routine group were given routine rehabilitation nursing, and patients in the staged nursing group were given staged rehabilitation nursing. The neurological deficit score (NIHSS), limb function score, independence score, cognitive level score and daily living ability score were compared between the two groups.
Results The NIHSS score of staged nursing group was lower than that of routine group at 12 weeks after operation, the Fugl-Meyer scores of upper limb and lower limb and the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) score and the Function Independent Measure (FIM) score of upper limb were higher than those of routine group, the cognitive level score and the total score of Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA) were higher than those of routine group, the life ability score and activities of daily living were higher than those of routine group, the score of Activity of Daily Life (ADL) was higher than that of routine group, and all the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).
Conclusion Staged rehabilitation nursing has significant effects on postoperative limb motor function and neurological function in patients with craniocerebral trauma.
