    Abstract:

    Objective To evaluate the effect of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine nursing path on patients with dementia through a randomized controlled trial.

    Methods 90 patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected and randomly divided into an experimental group (receiving care with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine) and a control group (receiving routine care). MMSE, PSQI, ADL, and MNA were measured at baseline, the fourth week of intervention, and the fourth week after discharge, and compared between groups.

    Results ①MMSE: The experimental group improved significantly in the fourth week of intervention and follow-up (P<0.05), and was significantly better than the control group (P<0.05). ②PSQI: The test group dropped significantly in the fourth week of intervention and follow-up (P<0.05), the control group also dropped in the fourth week of intervention (P<0.05), and the test group was significantly better (P<0.05). ③ADL: There was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). ④MNA: There was no significant difference between the two groups in the fourth week of intervention (P>0.05), and the experimental group improved significantly in the fourth week of follow-up (P<0.05).

    Conclusion The nursing path of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine has a significantly better intervention effect on the condition of patients with dementia than conventional nursing.
