Objective: To explore the application value of implementing comprehensive nursing interventions in the prevention and control of falls in elderly hypertensive patients. Method: 90 elderly hypertensive patients admitted to our hospital from March 2023 to April 2024 were selected as the study subjects. Patients were randomly divided into a control group (45 cases, receiving routine care) and a study group (45 cases, receiving comprehensive nursing intervention) according to different nursing methods. Collect and analyze the effects of nursing care on two groups of patients. Result: Both groups of patients achieved certain results after receiving nursing care. The incidence of stumbling, slipping, and tripping in the study group was lower than that in the control group. The scores of timely medication, reasonable diet, fall prevention awareness, and home environment renovation were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: In the prevention and control of falls in elderly hypertensive patients, comprehensive nursing interventions can effectively improve the incidence of falls in patients, increase awareness of fall risk factors, and have significant application significance.
