Effects of emotional support combined with systematic health education on negative emotion and quality of life in elderly pa-tients with cerebral infarction complicated with cognitive dysfunction
Objective To explore the effects of emotional support combined with systematic health education on negative emotion and quality of life in elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with cognitive dysfunction.Methods 160 convalescent elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with cognitive dysfunction admitted to Department of Neurolo-gy,Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from January 2023 to October 2023 were included.They were divided into two groups by random number table method:observation group(n=80 cases)and control group(n=80 cases).The control group received routine nursing and rehabilitation training during hospitalization,and the observation group received emotional support combined with systematic health education on the basis of the same treatment as the control group.The scores of Mini-Mental State Checklist(MMSE),Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA),self-rating scale of negative emotion anxie-ty(SAS)and depression(SDS),living ability(Modified Barthel Index)and Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale(SS-QOL)were compared between the two groups before and 3 months after intervention.Results At 3 months after intervention,MMSE score and MoCA score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05);SAS score and SDS score of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05);the modified Barthel Index score and SS-QOL score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of emo-tional support combined with systematic health education in the treatment of elderly patients with cerebral infarction complicated with cognitive dysfunction may improve their cognitive function,alleviate negative emotion,and improve their quality of life.
