Objective To investigate the effect of nursing intervention based on stress system theory on posttraumatic growth (PTG) and social support in patients with stroke. Methods 120 stroke patients who were hospitalized in Department of Neurology, Tangshan People's Hospital from January to August 2018 were selected as the research subjects by convenient sampling. A total of 120 stroke patients were divided into intervention group and control group according to the random number table method with 60 patients in each group. The control group was given routine care, and the intervention group was given stress system intervention on this basis. The Post-traumatic Growth Assessment Inventory (PTGI) and the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) were used to compare the PTG and social support levels of the two groups. Results After 2 months of intervention, the total score of PTGI in the intervention group was (69.67±9.10) , and that in the control group was (48.62±7.94) , the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05) . After the intervention, the PSSS score of the intervention group was (59.15±13.47) , which was higher than that in the control group (50.87±20.09) , the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05) . Conclusions Stress system intervention can improve PTG and social support in patients with stroke. Key words: Stroke; Social support; Posttraumatic growth; Stress system intervention
