Malnutrition defined as undernutrition is common in patients with acquired brain injury (ABI); however, estimates vary remarkably. This study aimed to describe malnutrition at admission and after 4 weeks of subacute inpatient neurorehabilitation in patients with ABI using the new global consensus definition of malnutrition. METHODS: One hundred thirty-three patients with moderate to severe ABI consecutively admitted to a specialized neurorehabilitation hospital within a period of 4 months were screened for inclusion, of which 92 were included. Malnutrition was defined as at least 1 phenotypic criterion (weight loss, low body mass index, low muscle mass) and at least 1 etiologic criterion (reduced food intake, inflammation). Malnutrition on admission and after 4 weeks was compared using the McNemar test. RESULTS: The proportion of patients with malnutrition at admission was 42%, with more men (46%) than women (36%) fulfilling the criteria for malnutrition. The most frequent phenotypic and etiologic criteria were weight loss (56%) and inflammation (74%), respectively. During the 4 weeks of rehabilitation, the proportion of male patients fulfilling the individual criteria \"weight loss\" (difference, -21.4%) and \"inflammation\" (difference, -18.9%) decreased significantly; \"low muscle mass\" decreased borderline significant (difference, -8.9%), whereas \"low body mass index\" did not change. The proportion of female patients fulfilling individual criteria for malnutrition was stable or increased nonsignificantly. CONCLUSION: Malnutrition was common at admission to neurorehabilitation in patients with moderate to severe ABI, with more men than women fulfilling the criteria for malnutrition. The nutritional status improved after 4 weeks of rehabilitation in male patients, whereas it was largely unchanged in female patients. The results provide the basis for monitoring high-quality nutritional nursing care.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"55 2","pages":"38-44"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10016508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

METHODS : A nonblind, randomized controlled trial was conducted in stroke patients to determine whether an education program intervention would alter behavior concerning home blood pressure measurements. This prospective, randomized controlled trial recruited 48 inpatients with stroke randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 24) or a usual care group (n = 24). The intervention involved 5 face-to-face support or telephone support sessions over 6 months to provide information regarding home blood pressure measurements and to confirm patient behavior using a textbook, a blood pressure recording form, and a blood pressure measurement device. RESULTS : There were no significant differences at baseline between the intervention and usual care groups. The median rate of performing home blood pressure measurements at 12 months was significantly higher in the intervention group (100.0% [99.1%-100.0%], n = 24) than the control group (62.5% [27.7%-87.5%], n = 24) ( P < .001). The rates of home blood pressure measurements (at 1, 3, and 7 months after registration) were also significantly higher in the intervention group. Seven months after registration, home blood pressure values (systolic blood pressure) were significantly lower in the intervention group than the control group ( P = .025). In contrast, there was no significant difference at 1, 3, or 12 months after registration.

This study was conducted to evaluate the presence of alexithymia and problem- or emotion-focused coping strategies with stress in MS patients, determine the relationship between these variables, and compare the results of MS patients with those of healthy individuals. METHODS: This descriptive, cross-sectional, and comparative study was carried out with the participation of 120 MS patients presenting to a neurology clinic and outpatient clinic of a university hospital and 120 healthy individuals. Data were collected using a personal information form, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, and the Ways of Coping Scale. RESULTS: The 40.8% rate of alexithymia in the MS patients was higher than that in the healthy individuals (21.7%). Compared with healthy individuals, MS patients use emotion-focused coping methods, such as a lack of self-confidence approach and a submissive approach, more frequently ( P < .05). A significant negative correlation was found between the alexithymia and problem-focused coping strategies of MS patients ( P < .01). CONCLUSION: Alexithymia is more common in MS patients than in healthy individuals. Alexithymia negatively affects the methods patients use to cope with stress. In the treatment and care of MS patients, nurses should plan interventions for the ability of these patients to recognize and express their emotions and develop positive coping methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"55 1","pages":"24-29"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9098797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A gap in knowledge and recognition of stroke by nursing staff was observed; protocols did not incorporate the Balance, Eyes, Face, Arms, Speech, and Time (BE-FAST) symptom mnemonic, and code stroke documentation was frequently incomplete. PURPOSE: This initiative aimed to improve timely recognition, evidence-based treatment, and nursing documentation of stroke-related symptoms. METHODS: This quality improvement initiative implemented an inpatient nurse-driven code stroke bundle. A pre-post prospective intervention design was implemented over 3 months. Code stroke bundle components included an evidence-based protocol, algorithm, visual aids, and education. Nursing communication and documentation used the BE-FAST mnemonic in a Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation format. RESULTS: Nursing stroke knowledge improved 8% (88% vs 96%, P < .001); stroke response times improved 15 minutes (25.9 vs 11 minutes, P = .383), although not significant; the code stroke documentation completion rate was increased 48.1% (0 [0%] vs 13 [48.1%], P < .001); and improved utilization of the BE-FAST tool with Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation communication (0 [0%] vs 20 [47.6%], P = < .001) was observed. The code stroke cancelation rate slightly worsened (10 [26.3%] vs 14 [26.9%], P = .949), code stroke notifications for altered mental status improved (15 [39.5%] vs 8 [15.7%], P = .015), and the stroke mimic rate improved (27 [71.1%] vs 35 [67.3%], P = .708). CONCLUSION: Nurses provide hospital patient care continuously and are in a key position to intervene when patients present changes in symptoms. Through education and creating an evidence-based protocol, nurses can impact patient outcomes in early recognition and activation of the code stroke system. Further studies are warranted to refine strategies leading to continued improvement in early stroke identification.</p>","PeriodicalId":50113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Neuroscience Nursing","volume":"55 1","pages":"18-23"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10553056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
