Objective To investigate the effect of nutritional intervention and modified postoperative ear ban⁃daging in improving the quality of postoperative incision recovery in cochlear implant patients. Methods A total of 72 patients who underwent cochlear implantation in Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery，Affiliat⁃ed Hospital of Southwest Medical University from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as subjects. The pa⁃tients were randomly divided into observation group（n=36）and control group（n=36）. The control group was giv⁃en nutritional screening and pressure bandaging after dressing change over the incision after surgery. The observa⁃tion group was given nutritional intervention following nursing screening，and after surgery，the incision was cov⁃ered with dressing after dressing change；the auricle was wrapped with adhesive foam dressing，followed by pres⁃sure bandaging. The two groups were compared in terms of nutritional status and postoperative incision recovery. Re-sults ①On admission，there was no significant difference in nutritional status（good nutrition and malnutrition）be⁃tween the two groups（P>0.05）. One week after surgery，the observation group had a significantly better nutritional status than the control group（P<0.05）.②There were no significant differences in anthropometric and blood param⁃eters between the two groups on admission（both P > 0.05），while there were significant differences in those be⁃tween the two groups at one week after surgery（both P<0.05）.③The observation group had significantly better postoperative recovery，including status of ear reddening，incidence of complications，and length of hospital stay， than the control group（all P<0.05）. Conclusion Nutritional intervention and modified postoperative ear bandag⁃ing can improve the nutritional status and postoperative recovery quality of cochlear implant patients，and improve the comfort of ear bandaging in patients，which holds promise for application.
