ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background

Studies have shown that predictive nursing can improve the quality of care and that the information–knowledge–attitude–practice (IKAP) nursing model has a positive impact on stroke patients. Establishing a reasonable exercise plan plays an important role in long-term rehabilitation and prognosis for patients with cerebrovascular disease (CVD).

Research motivation

There are no reports of predictive nursing combined with the IKAP nursing model for CVD.

Research objectives

This study aimed to explore the effects of IKAP nursing model combined with predictive nursing on the Fugl–Meyer motor function (FMA) score, Barthel index score, and disease knowledge mastery rate in patients with CVD.

Research methods

A total of 140 patients with CVD were randomly divided into control and observation groups. The control group received routine nursing, while the observation group received IKAP combined with predictive nursing. Both groups were observed for self-care ability, motor function, and disease knowledge mastery rate after one month of nursing.

Research results

There was no clear difference between the Barthel index and FMA scores of the two groups before nursing, but their scores increased after nursing. This increase was more apparent in the observation group, and the difference was statistically significant. The rates of disease knowledge mastery, timely medication, appropriate exercise, and reasonable diet were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group. The satisfaction rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group.

Research conclusions

The IKAP nursing model, combined with predictive nursing, is more effective than routine nursing in the care of patients with CVD; it can significantly improve the Barthel index and FMA scores with better knowledge acquisition and produce high satisfaction in patients. Moreover, it can be widely used in the clinical setting.

Research perspectives

The IKAP model of care, combined with predictive care, can be widely used in clinical settings to significantly improve long-term care and outcomes in patients with CVD.
