Abstract:ABSTRACT: Objective To summarize the preventive and nursing measures for deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs (DVT) in stroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods A total of 60 stroke patients with hemiplegia were assigned to control group (n=27) and the observation group (n=33) according to the admission date, with routine nursing care and preventive nursing interventions, respectively. The incidence of lower limb deep venous thrombosis was observed, and the patient′s quality of life were evaluated by Short Form 36 Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36). Results The incidence of DVT in the observation group was lower than that in the control group in 10 days after admission (P<0.05). The observation group achieved better score of SF36 compared with the controls after one month follow-up(P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion The preventive nursing intervention can effectively reduce the risk of DVT, and improve the quality of life in stroke patients with hemiplegia.
