Effect and Clinical Value of Protective Motivation Intervention Rehabilitation Model on Pain Perception and Dysfunction in Patients with Lumbar Disc Herniation: Based on a Retrospective Cohort Study

Abstract

Objective To examine the potential medical benefits of protective motivation intervention rehabilitation mode on pain perception and dysfunction in patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods 140 LDH patients hospitalized from January 2021 to September 2021 were totally selected. The control group received regular rehabilitation, and the research group received protective motivation intervention rehabilitation. The comparisons of scores of disease knowledge, visual analogue scale (VAS), pain belief and perception scale (PBPI), Japanese Orthopedic Association Score (JOA), Roland-Morris dysfunction (RMDQ), and quality of life scale (SF-36) were made across different groups. Results The scores of disease knowledge in the two cohorts at 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months after intervention were greater than those before intervention, and the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). The scores of VAS, PBPI, JOA, and RMDQ at 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months after intervention were downregulated. At 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months after intervention, the experimental scores of VAS, PBPI, JOA, and RMDQ were markedly fewer than the control group, and the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). The scores of SF-36 after intervention were statistically upregulated, and the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). After intervention, the score of SF-36 in the research group was significantly higher than that in the control group, and the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion The application of protective motivation intervention in rehabilitation of LDH patients can more effectively improve their cognitive level, reduce their pain perception, improve their lumbar function, and enhance their well-being.
