ABSTRACT
@#Objective To explore the effect of core stability training (CST) on motor of upper limbs after stroke. Methods 60 patients with stroke were divided into observation group (n=30) and control group (n=30). Both groups accepted routine medicine and motor relearning program, and the observation group accepted CST before training. They were assessed with Simple Test for Evaluating Hand Function (STEF), modified Barthel index (MBI), and the Trunk Control Test (TCT) before and 4 weeks after treatment. Results The scores of STEF,MBI, and TCT improved after treatment in both groups (P<0.01), and improved more in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion CST may facilitate the motor recovery of upper limbs after stroke.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the effect of self-efficacy theory in rehabilitation on stroke patients with hemiplegia complicated psychological disorder. Methods 26 cases were divided into the combined therapy group (13 cases, accepted physical therapy with self-efficacy) and the routine physical therapy group (13 cases). They were assessed with General self-efficacy scale (GSES), Fugl-Meyer Assessment before and 1, 3 months after treatment, as well as symptom checklist (SCL-90) before and 1 month after treatment. Results The scores of GSES raise 63% in the combined therapy group 1 month after treatment, obviously different from that of routine physical therapy (P<0.01).The score of Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the combined therapy group were increased from (53.08±13.04) to (90.07±6.54 ) and from (56.46±12.95) to (81.77±8.51)in the routine physical therapy group (F= 85.53,P<0.05). All the scores of depression, anxiety, compulsion, hostility in SCL-90 were markedly lower in the combined therapy group than in the routine physical therapy group(P<0.01). Conclusion Utilization of self-efficacy theory in rehabilitation can improve the emotion and effect of rehabilitation.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the mental health status of patients with cervical spondylosis and the curative effect of psychotherapy.Methods71 patients of cervical spondylosis with psychological obstacles were randomly divided into the experiment group (32 cases, treated by physiotherapy combined with psychotherapy simultaneously) and control group (39 cases, treated by physiotherapy only). The patients' somzatization and mental health status were evaluated by the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) and the table of curative effect estimation of cervical syndrome before and four weeks after treatment.ResultsThere was no significant difference between two groups in the degrees of somzatization and scores of SCL-90 before treatment. After four weeks treatment, both two groups had improvement in the physical symptom and psychological condition, but the curative effect of the experiment group was better than the control group ( P<0.05).ConclusionBecause having a long disease course, the patients with cervical spondylosis have different level mental health troubles. Psychotherapy is helpful to improve curative effect.
