Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the relationship between nursing assessment findings at discharge and acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) patient prognosis after mechanical thrombectomy (MT).
Methods: We analysed the characteristics of 144 AIS patients with MT treatment admitted to a university affiliated teaching hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan Province China, from January 2020 to December 2020. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score was used to assess outcomes 90-days after discharge. Exploratory analyses were undertaken using IBM SPSS Statistics (Version 26.0).
Results: At 90-days, 47.9% (n = 69) had a good prognosis (mRS ≤ 2) including 22.2% (n = 32) fully recovered patients. There were 5 (3.5%) deceased patients and 48.6% (n = 70) of patients had a poor prognosis (mRS ≥ 3). In univariate analysis, clinical prognosis correlated with the need for inpatient endotracheal intubation (p = 0.02), nasogastric tube (p < 0.001), indwelling urinary catheter (p < 0.001), central venous catheter (p = 0.03), health knowledge needs of pressure injury prevention (p = 0.03), National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (p < 0.001) and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score (p < 0.001) at the time of discharge from hospital. The average hospitalization time of the 144 patients was 12[IQR, 9-25] days, and the average cost of hospitalization was $Y$21291.93 (SD 9165.01).
Conclusion: Almost half of the surviving patients had a poor prognosis. In our country, this surgery and rehabilitation impose a significant financial burden that needs to be addressed. However, the longer length of hospital stay and higher costs at discharge may be contributing factors to worse outcomes. The outcomes of comprehensive nursing assessment of the patients, including nursing needs, activities of daily living, and neurological function, can predict their outcome.
Impact statement: We recommend a comprehensive nursing assessment at discharge that predicts patient outcomes and can be used for subsequent targeted interventions. The prognosis of patients with acute ischaemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy is poor, and the financial burden needs to be considered.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
