Simple Explanation

This study investigates the impact of nursing interventions based on Snyder's hope theory on patients with spinal cord injuries. The intervention focuses on enhancing hope levels, reducing negative emotions, and improving the overall quality of life for these patients. The results suggest that this approach can significantly improve emotional state, hope, and quality of life while reducing complications.

Study Duration
August 2021 to October 2023
Participants
80 patients with spinal cord injury
Evidence Level
Not specified

Key Findings

  • 1
    Nursing intervention based on Snyder’s hope theory decreased anxiety and depression scores compared to routine care.
  • 2
    The intervention significantly increased the patients' hope levels and quality of life compared to the control group.
  • 3
    The nursing intervention was associated with a lower occurrence of complications and a higher nursing satisfaction rate.

Research Summary

The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of nursing intervention based on Snyder’s hope theory in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). The results indicated that the intervention significantly reduced anxiety and depression, increased hope levels and quality of life, and lowered the incidence of complications. Multivariate analysis identified nursing methods and hemoglobin levels as significant influencing factors for complications after nursing intervention.

Practical Implications

Clinical Practice

Implementing Snyder's hope theory in nursing care for SCI patients can improve emotional well-being and rehabilitation outcomes.

Patient Care

Focusing on goal setting, positive thinking, and emotional support can enhance the effectiveness of nursing interventions.

Further Research

Future studies should expand the scope to include multiple centers and larger sample sizes to validate the findings.

Study Limitations

  • 1
    Single-centered design
  • 2
