ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the methods and effectiveness of the physical therapy team management mode.MethodsAccording to the type of cerebral palsy and a certain ratio of beds and staff, the therapists were divided into 3 groups, and relatively fixed. They treated children with differrent types of CP and different beds by turn. The implementation of treatment was 3 years.ResultsAfter the physical therapy team management mode was executed, the therapist's theoretical knowledge and technical skill were upgraded, patient satisfaction raised, and the occurrence of accidental injury reduced.ConclusionThe physical therapy team management mode is conducive to standardize therapist behavior, improve the capacity of theory and practice of therapists and promote patient recovery.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To observe the effect of the body weight support training (BWST) on walking ability of children with cerebral palsy (CP). Methods 50 children with CP were divided into the BWST group （n=30） and control group（n=20）. All cases were treated with physical therapy, but the BWST group were added with BWST. The scores of D and E dimensions of the Gross Motor Function Measure Scale (GMFM) were used to assess the walking ability before and after the treatment, respectively. Results The scores of D and E dimensions of GMFM improved in both groups after treatment (P<0.01), and that of the BWST group improved more than control group （P＜0.05）. Conclusion BWST can facilitate the recovery of the walking ability after cerebral palsy.
ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo observe the effect of bubble bath coordinating with functional training on the children with spastic cerebral palsy.Methods210 children with spastic cerebral palsy were randomly divided into the treatment group (n=118) and control group (n=92). All children were treated with functional training, acupuncture and other physical therapies. Children in the treatment group were added with bubble bath one time every day, twenty days as one course. Muscular tension was evaluated with modified Ashworth Scale and range of motion was measured before and after treatment.ResultsIn the treatment group, 55 cases were significant, 53 cases were effective, 10 cases were invalid, the total effective rate was 91.5%; in the control group, 26 cases were significant, 46 cases were effective, 20 cases were invalid, the total effective was 78.2%. There was a significant difference between the total effective rates of two groups (P<0.05).ConclusionBubble bath can significantly decrease the muscular tension of children with spastic cerebral palsy.
