Abstract：Objective To investigate the effect of high quality nursing intervention on recovery of hemiparetic stroke patients with acupuncture rehabilitation therapy. Methods A total of 80 hemiparetic stroke patients at convalescent stage were randomly divided into the control group (n=40) and the observation group (n=40), with acupuncture rehabilitation therapy. The control group was given conventional nursing and the observation group was given the high quality nursing interventions. The FuglMeyer Assessment (FMA) and functional independence rating scale (FIM) of two groups were compared before intervention, 1 month and 3 months after intervention. Results Three months after intervention, the scores of FMA and FIM were increased in both of two groups 3 months after intervention compared to those before intervention and 1 month after intervention (P＜0.01). The observation group achieved a higher score of FMA and FIM 1 month and 3 months after intervention compared with the control group (P＜0.01). Conclusion High quality nursing is potentially effective to improve the motor and physical function rehabilitation in hemiparetic stroke patients with acupuncture rehabilitation therapy.
