Objective To explore the effect of perioperative nursing intervention in the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fracture with minimally invasive internal fixation. Methods 53 patients with thoracolumbar burst fracture admitted to our hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous pedicle internal fixation. The patients were divided into control group (n=27 cases) and observation group (n=26 cases) by random number table. Patients in the control group received routine nursing intervention during the perioperative period, while patients in the observation group received perioperative rapid rehabilitation nursing intervention based on the control group. The perioperative indexes and pain degree of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results The operation time, hospitalization time and postoperative bedtime of the patients in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group, and the operation bleeding volume was less than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); The pain index in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group at 1 week and 6 months after operation (P<0.05). Conclusion Perioperative rapid rehabilitation nursing intervention can effectively promote the rehabilitation process of patients with thoracolumbar burst fracture treated by minimally invasive internal fixation and improve their pain, which is worthy of popularization and application.
