Aim:Cerebral infarction, a common type of stroke, results from a sudden interruption of blood flow to the brain, leading to a myriad of challenges and complications for patients. Among these complications, decreased muscle strength is a prominent issue that can have profound implications for patients' overall well-being and functional independence. Decreased muscle strength in cerebral infarction often manifests as weakness, loss of mobility, and impaired ability to perform activities; the psychological impact of these physical limitations can lead to anxiety and depression, further exacerbating the patient's condition. To investigate the effect of progressive rehabilitation nursing on the physical rehabilitation and quality of life of patients with cerebral infarction, to provide valuable insights and guidance for enhancing the functional recovery of individuals affected by cerebral infarction. Design:100 cerebral infarction patients combined with decreased muscle strength admitted to our hospital between October 2019 and October 2020 were randomly selected as the study subjects for prospective analysis. Methods:They were divided into a control group (n = 50) and an experimental group (n = 50) using the random number table method. Patients in the control group underwent rehabilitation treatment, while patients in the experimental group underwent progressive rehabilitation nursing intervention guided by quality nursing intervention. The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) motor function score, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) neurological function score, Barthel Index (BI), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores, nursing efficiency and the incidence rate of adverse mood after 1, 2 and 3 weeks of nursing were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results:The FMA and BI index scores of patients in the experimental group were notably higher than those in the control group, and the comparison was statistically significant (P < .05); The NIHSS, SAS and SDS scores of patients in the experimental group were notably lower than those of the control group, and the results of the comparison were statistically significant (P < .05); The nursing efficiency and nursing satisfaction of patients in the experimental group was remarkably higher, and the results of the comparison were statistically significant (P < .05); The incidence of bad mood in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group after 1, 2 and 3 weeks of nursing, and the incidence rate of adverse mood in the experimental group was improved with time, that is, 1>2>3 weeks in descending order (P < .05). Patient or Public Contribution:Progressive rehabilitation nursing not only enhances muscle strength and restores their physical functions to a certain extent while reducing the incidence of adverse reactions and physical function but also mitigates the risk of adverse mood states. Ultimately, it contributes to an improved overall quality of life and psychological well-being of patients affected by cerebral infarction.

BACKGROUND:Cerebral infarction, previously referred to as cerebral infarction or ischemic stroke, refers to the localized brain tissue experiencing ischemic necrosis or softening due to disorders in brain blood supply, ischemia, and hypoxia. The precision rehabilitation nursing model for chronic disease management is a continuous, fixed, orderly, and efficient nursing model aimed at standardizing the clinical nursing process, reducing the wastage of medical resources, and improving the quality of medical services. AIM:To analyze the value of a precise rehabilitation nursing model for chronic disease management in patients with cerebral infarction. METHODS:Patients ( = 124) admitted to our hospital with cerebral infarction between November 2019 and November 2021 were enrolled as the study subjects. The random number table method was used to divide them into a conventional nursing intervention group ( = 61) and a model nursing intervention group ( = 63). Changes in the nursing index for the two groups were compared after conventional nursing intervention and precise rehabilitation intervention nursing for chronic disease management. RESULTS:Compared with the conventional intervention group, the model intervention group had a shorter time to clinical symptom relief ( < 0.05), lower Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression Scale scores, a lower incidence of total complications ( < 0.05), a higher disease knowledge mastery rate, higher safety and quality, and a higher overall nursing satisfaction rate ( < 0.05). CONCLUSION:The precision rehabilitation nursing model for chronic disease management improves the clinical symptoms of patients with cerebral infarction, reducing the incidence of total complications and improving the clinical outcome of patients, and is worthy of application in clinical practice.
