ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of homemade ankle-foot orthopedic band on motor function of lower extremities in children with foot drop post spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Methods 24 spastic hemiplegic CP children were randomly divided into observa-tion group (n=12) and control group (n=12). Both groups accepted roution rehabilitation training. The control group accepted walking train-ing, and the observation group accepted walking training wearing the homemade ankle-foot orthopedic band, for 12 weeks. They were as-sessed with modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) of gastrocnemius, range of motion (ROM) of ankle active dorsiflexion, and D and E domains of Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88) before and after treatment. Results The score of MAS significantly decreased in both groups after treatment (P<0.01), and decreased more in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). ROM and scores of D and E do-mains of GMFM-88 significantly increased in both groups after treatment (P<0.01), and increased more in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Walking training with the homemade ankle-foot orthopedic band may further decrease the muscle tone of gastrocnemius, increase the active range of motion of ankle and improve the motor function of lower extremities in children with foot drop post spastic hemiplegic CP.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate and analyze the influencing factors of community nursing cognition and employment intention of higher vocational nursing students,and provide reference for higher vocational colleges to carry out community nursing education and employment guidance.Methods Using the stratified cluster sampling method,nursing students from different grades and different education levels were selected as the object of study and participate in the questionnaire survey.Results The nursing students from different grades,education levels and areas showed significant difference in community nursing and employment intention.Conclusions Higher vocational nursing colleges should strengthen the community nursing practice education and community employment guidance; improve the community nursing cognition and community employment intention of nursing students.
