PG - 23 LID - 10.1186/s41016-021-00240-6 [doi] LID - 23 AB - BACKGROUND: We sought to explore an optimal clinical nursing mode following a hybrid surgery for cerebral arteriovenous malformation. METHODS: Patients with complex cerebral arteriovenous malformations seen in our neurosurgery department from January 2016 to December 2017 were prospectively enrolled. The hybrid surgery protocol included "angiographic diagnosis, surgical resection, and intraoperative angiographic evaluation" and "angiographic diagnosis and embolization, surgical resection, and intraoperative angiographic evaluation". The patients were randomly stratified into intensive care group and routine care group. After surgery, intensive or routine care was provided, and the prognosis of patients was evaluated, with a subsequent comparative analysis. RESULTS: A total of 109 cases were divided into the routine nursing group (n = 54 cases) and intensive nursing group (n = 55 cases). There were no significant differences between the two groups in baseline data before surgery. Postoperative lung infection in the intensive nursing group was significantly less frequent than those in the routine nursing group (5.5% vs. 18.5%, P=0.039) with pulmonary infection and lower extremity venous thrombosis (5.5% vs. 24.1%, P=0.006). The average hospital stay in the intensive nursing group was 14.4 +/- 5.78 days, which was significantly lower than that in the routine nursing group (19.3 +/- 6.38 days, P=0.013). At 3 months' follow-up after surgery, the Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOLI-74) dimension score and GQOLI-74 total score in the enhanced group were significantly better than those in the routine nursing group (P=0.017 and 0.023, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Intensive postoperative nursing can improve the safety of patients after hybrid surgery, reduce the postoperative complications and the average length of hospital stay, and improve the quality of life of patients.
