Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to explore the role of primary nursing in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH) undergoing minimally invasive surgery.

Methods: We randomly assigned 106 patients with HICH treated in our hospital to receive routine nursing (54 cases, group A) or primary nursing in addition to routine nursing (52 cases, group B). The scores of negative emotions, incidence of complications, quality of life, and prognosis of all patients were recorded.

Results: The score of negative emotions and the incidence of complications were lower in group B than in group A (P < 0.05). The scores of quality of life and prognosis were higher in group B than in group A (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: Primary nursing intervention can improve the prognosis and postoperative quality of life of patients with HICH undergoing minimally invasive surgery.
