Objective To observe the effect of mental nursing for operation patients with earthquake trauma on their rehabilitation.
Methods Eighty operation patients with earthquake trauma were randomly divided into two groups: mental nursing group and conventional nursing group. Psychological consult was used in the mental nursing group.
Results were recorded by psychologic test, investigation questionnaire and nursing statistics. The measuring scales included SCL-90, HAMD and HAMA. Results The degree of satisfaction in the mental nursing group was obviously higher than that in the conventional nursing group. The scores of depression and anxiety in the mental nursing group were lower than these in the conventional nursing group. The length of hospital stay in the mental nursing group was also shorter (P lt;0.05).
Conclusion Mental nursing could reduce dysphrenia in operation patients with earthquake trauma and facilitate their rehabilitation.
