RESEARCH ON REHABILITATION EFFECTS OF COGNITIVE TRAINING FOR POST-STROKE PATIENTS WITH COGNITIVE DISORDERS

[Objective] To study the rehabilitation effects of cognitive training for post-stroke patients with cognitive disorders.[Methods] A total of 96 stroke patients with cognitive disorders were randomly divided into training group and control group.The training group received general rehabilitation training and cognitive rehabilitation training.The control group only accepted general rehabilitation training.All patients were assessed with Mini Mental State Examination(MMSE).Used Fugl-Meyer Scale(FMS) and Modified Barthel Index(MBI) to evaluate their cognition,movement function and activity of daily living(ADL) before training,as well as after one or two months training.[Results] There was no significant difference in cognition,movement functions and ADL between training group and control group before treatment(P﹥0.05).The differences in the assessment of Brunnstrom Scale and MBI between two groups after one month training were not significant(P﹥0.05).The scores of Fugl-Meyer Scale,MMSE and Barthel index of the training group after two months training showed significant difference(P﹤0.05).[Conclusion] Cognitive rehabilitation therapy with general rehabilitation training could improve the cognitive function,movement functions and ADL of stroke patients,and is also helpful for the patient's comprehensive rehabilitation.
