Abstract：Objective:To investigate the effect of comprehensive nursing intervention in the treatment of patients with fracture of the hu-meral shaft by using internal fixation with intramedullary nail. Methods:90 patients with fracture of the humeral shaft were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group(45 cases in each group). The patients in both groups were treated with internal fixation with intramedullary nail. The patients in the control group received routine nursing care and the patients in the observation group were given comprehensive nursing intervention,the nursing effects were compared between the two groups. Results:There were statistically significant differences in the comparison of clinical curative effect,the score of ASES and fracture healing time between the two groups(P〈0. 05);the incidence of brachial artery thrombosis,postoperative radial nerve palsy,osteofascial compartment syndrome and postoperative infection of the patients was lower in the observation group than the control group(P〈0. 05). Conclusion:Implementation of the comprehensive nursing intervention can improve the therapeutic effect,shorten the healing time and reduce the complications of operation in the treatment of humeral shaft fractures by internal fixation with intramedullary nail.
