Effect of modified facial paralysis rehabilitation nursing on patients with facial paralysis after vestibular schwannoma surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objective

After vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery, some patients exhibit different degrees of peripheral facial paralysis, which can seriously affect their quality of life. The recovery of facial nerve function after surgery typically takes a considerable amount of time; therefore, the recovery of facial nerve function depends mainly on the rehabilitation treatment and nursing after discharge. In the past, we implemented conventional paralysis rehabilitation nursing program for patients with facial paralysis due to VS surgery. However, several patients with facial paralysis have bad compliance and do not achieve ideal facial nerve function recovery. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether modified facial paralysis rehabilitation nursing improves the effec
