Objective: This research studied the clinical value of implementing early rehabilitation in the nursing of patients with cerebral infarction. Methods: Eighty-four patients with cerebral infarction in Hubei Third People’s Hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected and divided into a control group and a study group using the digital table method in which routine care and early rehabilitation care were given respectively and the effects were observed. Results: Prior to the nursing intervention, there was no significant difference in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Barthel index between the two groups of patients, P > 0.05. After the nursing intervention, the NIHSS of the study group was lower than that of the control group whereas the Barthel index, Quality of Life Scale, and patient satisfaction in the study group were higher than the control group, P < 0.05. Conclusion: The implementation of early rehabilitation in the nursing of patients with cerebral infarction can effectively improve their neurological function and quality of life in addition to a higher satisfaction among them.
