Abstract

Objective To explore the effects of case nursing combined with cognitive nursing intervention on general status and cognitive function in stroke patients with depression. Methods From October 2016 to April 2018, we selected 96 stroke patients with depression in Department of Neurology of He'nan Provincial People's Hospital. All of the patients were divided into observation group and control group with the random number table, 48 cases in each group. Control group received routine nursing. On the basis of that in control group, observation group applied case nursing combined with cognitive nursing intervention. The investigation was carried out with the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) , Nurses' Observation Scale for Inpatient Evaluation (NOSIE) , Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) before and after intervention. We also observed patients' abnormal body condition and hospital days. Results The incidence of abnormal body condition of patients in observation group was lower than that in control group with a statistical difference (P<0.05) . After intervention, the scores of NOSIE of patients in observation group, the scores of personal neatness, interest and social competence were higher than those in control group; the scores of depression, irritability and slowness were lower than those in control group; the differences were all statistical (P<0.01) . The incidence of cognitive disorder and the scores of HAMA as well as HAMD all decreased after intervention, and the improvements of observation group were statistically better than those of control group (P<0.05) . There was statistical differences in the hospital days between two groups (P<0.05) . Conclusions Case nursing combined with cognitive nursing intervention can improve depression, anxiety and cognitive function, and shorten hospital days among stroke patients with depression which is worth further promotion in clinical application. Key words: Stroke; Depression; Anxiety; Cognitive function; Case nursing; Cognitive nursing
