Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of early rehabilitation education on activities of daily living(ADL)and functional independence of spinal-cord injured patients.Methods To divide 76 spinal-cord injured patients into rehabilitation educational group and control group.The rehabilitation educational group was given the scientific early rehabilitaion education before rehabilitation training,but the control group was only given the rehabilitation training.The Barthel index and FIM were used to evaluate the two groups' patietns on admission and discharge.Results On discharge,the Barthel index and FIM score respectively were 81.16±10.56,99.86±11.23 and 68.42±11.55,89.95±10.64,the funcition of two group patients were improved,but the function improving in rehabilitation educational group excelled the control group(P0.01).Conclusion The early rehabilitation education joined in the rehabilitation training has the active meaning to functional recovery of spinal-cord injured patients.
