Clinical Effect Of Comprehensive Nursing Intervention For Children With Traumatic Brain Injury

Objective: To investigate the effects of comprehensive nursing intervention on neurological recovery, motor function, intelligence, and daily living ability in children with traumatic brain injury. Methods: We recruited 100 children with traumatic brain injury and retrospectively analyzed the clinical data. According to the actual practice of nursing, the cases were divided into two groups, the comprehensive nursing group (n=50) given comprehensive nursing care and the conventional nursing group (n=50) given routine nursing care. The incidence of cerebral palsy, and scores of the developmental quotient (DQ), psychomotor development index (PDI), mental developmental index (MDI), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) were compared between the two groups. Results: Compared with the conventional nursing group, the incidence rate of cerebral palsy was significantly reduced in the comprehensive nursing group (P<0.05); the scores of the DQ, PDI, MDI and ADL were significantly improved (all P<0.001); and the NIHSS score was significantly reduced (P<0.001). Conclusion: Comprehensive nursing intervention can promote intellectual and motor development, and improve neurological function and daily living ability, with an obvious reduction in the incidence of cerebral palsy. It is worth being promoted in clinical practice.
