Objective To analyze the value and effect of applying psychological care in the nursing of patients with limb fractures. Methods A total of 116 patients with limb fractures admitted to our hospital from January 2023 to October 2024 were selected and divided into two groups by random number table method: the control group (provided with routine care) and the study group (provided with psychological care on the basis of routine care). Negative emotions, compliance, quality of life, pain score and nursing satisfaction were compared. Results Compared with the control group, the SDS, SAS and VAS scores of the study group were lower, and the patient compliance, nursing satisfaction and quality of life score (WHOQOL-BREF) were higher (P < 0.05). Conclusion The application of psychological care in patients with limb fractures can regulate their negative psychological emotions, alleviate their pain, improve their compliance and satisfaction during treatment, and enhance their quality of life. It is worth learning from.
