Nursing measures for brain trauma, physical and psychological aspects should be taken into consideration

Brain trauma can cause restricted movement on one side of the body. During treatment, it is important to pay attention to the patient's physical and psychological problems so that the condition can be recovered faster. The patient's daily living environment should be relatively quiet and their diet and nutrition should keep up.

1. Pay attention to the quietness of the room , dim the light, and reduce all interference to the patient.

2. Nursing of limb function : Maintain a semi-recumbent position regularly, turn over regularly, and pat the back for 1/2 hour; local massage 3-5 times/day; local acupuncture (after two weeks), once/day, 10 days as a course of treatment; perform hyperbaric oxygen therapy, 10 days as a course of treatment.

3. Diet : If the patient has regained consciousness and can eat independently, it is recommended that he or she eat semi-liquid food. There is no restriction on what to eat, but spicy and other irritating foods are prohibited. Foods mainly composed of whole grains can have a certain effect on the nutrition of patients' peripheral nerves, supplemented by liquid nutrients such as milk. Broth is also acceptable, but it is recommended to discard the oil layer on the broth. Be sure to pay attention to food hygiene.

4. Do not change the original lifestyle habits of patients in the chronic stage . For example, getting up early, washing, eating, and placing items can all be done naturally. Try to encourage individuals to take care of themselves and do things they like. Enhance the patient's sense of responsibility, such as being responsible for opening and closing the doors and windows of his or her own room, cleaning the bedside table, sweeping the floor, etc., so that he or she can maintain confidence in life.

5. When the patient's memory and intelligence are impaired , it is difficult for him to express his symptoms, so the symptoms are hidden, atypical and coexistent. The changes in the condition need to be observed comprehensively and carefully.

6. Provide adequate nutrition and water according to the condition of the patient, and provide nasogastric feeding or intravenous hypernutrition if necessary.

Note: Because brain trauma affects the patient's ability to live in daily life, the psychological impact on the patient is enormous. Therefore, family members should not only adjust the diet, but also pay attention to psychological care.
