Impact of extended nursing model after multi-disciplinary treatment on young patient with post-stroke

BACKGROUND: Stroke has become one of the most serious life-threatening diseases due to its high morbidity, disability, recurrence and mortality rates. AIM: To explore the intervention effect of multi-disciplinary treatment (MDT) extended nursing model on negative emotions and quality of life of young patients with post-stroke. METHODS: A total of 60 young stroke patients who were hospitalized in the neurology department of our hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group, with 30 patients in each group. The control group used the conventional care model and the experimental group used the MDT extended nursing model. After the in-hospital and 3-mo post-discharge interventions, the differences in negative emotions and quality of life scores between the two groups were evaluated and analyzed at the time of admission, at the time of discharge and after discharge, respectively. RESULTS: There are no statistically significant differences in the negative emotions scores between the two groups at admission, while there are statistically significant differences in the negative emotions scores within each group at admission and discharge, at discharge and post-discharge, and at discharge and post-discharge. In addition, the negative emotions scores were all statistically significant at discharge and after discharge when compared between the two groups. There was no statistically significant difference in quality of life scores at the time of admission between the two groups, and the difference between quality of life scores at the time of admission and discharge, at the time of discharge and post-discharge, and at the time of admission and post-discharge for each group of patients was statistically significant. CONCLUSION: The MDT extended nursing mode can improve the negative emotion of patients and improve their quality of life. Therefore, it can be applied in future clinical practice and is worthy of promotion.
