Objective: To explore the effect of predictive nursing on limb rehabilitation in patients with spontaneous hypertensive cerebral haemorrhage in the basal ganglia region based on diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) technology.

Methods: From January 2020 to January 2021, 55 patients with spontaneous hypertensive cerebral haemorrhage in the basal ganglia were selected from the Department of Neurosurgery, Huzhou First People's Hospital. They were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group. The control group was given routine nursing measures, and the experimental group was assigned predictive nursing based on DTI. After three weeks of intervention, the two groups' nursing effects were compared. The Fugl-Meyer motor assessment (FMA) and modified Barthel index (MBI) scoring scale were used to evaluate patients' motor function and daily living activities.

Results: After three weeks of intervention, motor function scores improved in both groups compared with before treatment (P < 0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in FMA scores between the experimental and control groups before and after the intervention (P < 0.001).  The MBI scores of the two groups before and after the intervention were statistically significant (P < 0.001). From the mean point of view, the MBI score of the experimental group after the intervention was significantly higher than that before the intervention.

Conclusion: Predictive nursing based on DTI can improve the limb motor function of patients with basal ganglia haemorrhage and enhance the patient's ability to live daily.
