Abstract
Objective To explore the effects of psychological crisis intervention in amputation patients with limbs high-voltage burns. Methods A total of 68 amputation patients with limbs high-voltage burns who were treated in Harbin Fifth Hospital from January 2011 to December 2016 were selected in this study using purposive sampling. The participants were randomly divided into the observation group (n=34) and the control group (n=34) . The control group received routine psychological nursing care while the observation group was given psychological crisis intervention. The Stress Reaction (SR) , SAS, and SDS were used to evaluate the effects of the intervention. Results The observation group had significantly lower scores of SR, SAS, and SDS compared with the control group [ (17.89±3.66) vs. (26.89±3.98) for SR; (42.31±8.48) vs. (50.32±10.25) for SAS; (45.32±8.96) vs. (52.77±11.18) for SDS; (t=17.328, 4.512, 3.581; P<0.05) ]. Conclusions The psychological crisis intervention can effectively improve negative emotions such as anxiety and depression in amputation patients with limbs high-voltage burns. It helps patients to develop positive attitudes towards the reality of amputation. Key words: Burns, electric; Amputation; Psychological crisis intervention
