Abstract
- Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of continuing care based on WeChat platform and MDT (multidisciplinary team) on outcomes and negative emotions in young and middle-aged patients with stroke sequelae. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on clinical data of 109 young patients with post-stroke sequelae in our hospital. Based on the nursing approach, the patients were divided into two groups. Group A received conventional continued care (including reinforcing health education upon discharge, providing relevant precautions after discharge, regular follow-up of patients, and others), while Group B received continued care based on the WeChat platform and multidisciplinary team (MDT) collaboration. A comparative analysis was performed on NHISS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale) scores, Barthel Index (activities of daily living), FMA (Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Motor Recovery after Stroke) scores, disease awareness and attitude scores, selfefficacy scores, self-care ability scores, SAS (Self-Rating Anxiety Scale) scores, SDS (Self-Rating Depression Scale) scores, quality of life scores, and social support levels before intervention and 6 months after interventions in both groups. Results: Compared with Group A, Group B had lower NHISS scores (30.08 vs. 17.08) and higher Barthel Index (73.35 vs. 94.48) and FMA scores (68.06 vs. 90.08) (P<0.05); higher disease awareness scores (40.18±2.15 vs. 48.96±3.66) (P<0.05), higher self-efficacy scores (105.56 vs. 119.26) and self-care scores (98.18 vs. 110.06) (P<0.05), lower SAS scores (56.06 vs. 40.06) (P<0.05), higher quality of life (125.63±3.12 vs. 185.12±2.52) as well as higher nursing satisfaction scores (56.63±3.16 vs. 92.15±3.15) (P<0.05). Conclusions: Continuing care based on the WeChat platform and MDT is beneficial to promote the recovery of neurological and physical functions, improve abilities of daily living, self-efficacy, selfcare and quality of life in young and middle-aged patients with stroke sequelae, and relieve the impact of negative emotions on the recovery.
