Introduction: To clarify the influence of evidence-based nursing intervention on neurological function and quality of life of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients.

Materials and methods: A total of 41 ICH patients who were treated from September 2018 to September 2021 were chosen as research subjects in the control group, and another 41 ICH patients who were treated in our hospital during the same period were chosen as research subjects in observation group. The control group received routine treatment and nursing measures, while the observation group received evidence-based nursing on the basis of routine nursing in the control group. The anxiety, neurological deficit scores, quality of life scores and nursing efficacy were assessed in two groups.

Results: After nursing, anxiety scores in the control group (49.13±5.05), and depression scores were (50.69±6.14), both higher than those in the evidence-based group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The social function scores, physical function scores and psychological function scores in the observation group presented elevation relative to the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment, NIHSS score in observation group presented depletion relative to control group by scoring the neurological deficits in two groups (P<0.05). After nursing, the nursing effective rate in observation group presented elevation relative to the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 12.20%, which was lower than that (34.16%) in the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Evidence-based nursing intervention can improve the neurological function of ICH patients and improve the quality of life of patients, thus evidence-based nursing can be widely used in ICH patients.
