Post-stroke cognitive dysfunction is a common complication of stroke, and active rehabilitation therapy can effectively promote the recovery of patients. As a new treatment method, telecognitive rehabilitation is used in rehabilitation treatment of cognitive disorders. Its main technologies include computer-assisted cognitive rehabilitation, virtual reality technology, and artificial intelligence technology. It can use the Internet platform to provide homogeneous treatment, make patients more convenient for cognitive rehabilitation treatment, help to ensure the continuity of rehabilitation treatment, and save medical costs. This article describes the definition of cognitive telerehabilitation, the development and application of cognitive telerehabilitation technology, and summarizes the existing problems. The purpose is to provide a reference for the clinical application of cognitive telerehabilitation in China and future research directions.
ObjectiveTo explore the application and effect of peer education combined with group psychological intervention in patients with spinal cord injury.Methodspatients with spinal cord injury admitted to the Rehabilitation Medicine Center of West China Hospital, Sichuan University from April to June 2019 were selected. According to the random number table method, the patients were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group. The patients in the control group received routine psychological nursing intervention; while those in the experimental group were given routine psychological nursing intervention, supplemented by peer education and group psychological intervention. Before and 1 month after the intervention, the self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), the Short Form-36 (SF-36), and the compliance of rehabilitation treatment were compared between the two groups.ResultA total of 51 patients with spinal cord injury were admitted and 40 were eventually included, with 20 in each group. Before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in SAS, SDS, SF-36 or rehabilitation treatment compliance (P>0.05). After the intervention, SAS [(28.60±3.30) points], SDS [(33.35±2.32) points], SF-36 [(86.60±4.56) points], and the rehabilitation treatment compliance [(83.28±5.07) %] in the experimental group were significantly improved compared with those in the control group [(34.75±6.17) points, (45.90±3.81) points, (80.90±5.19) points, (75.61±5.94) %; t=−3.932, −12.580, −3.694, 4.397, P<0.001]. After the intervention, SAS and SDS of the experimental group decreased compared with those before the intervention (P<0.05); while SF-36 and rehabilitation treatment compliance were higher than those before the intervention (P<0.05). Compared with those before the intervention, the SAS, SDS, SF-36 and rehabilitation treatment compliance of the control group after the intervention were not statistically significant (P>0.05).ConclusionGroup psychological intervention combined with peer education can effectively promote the psychological rehabilitation of patients with spinal cord injury and improve the curative effect and patients' quality of life.
Objective To explore whether the effect of cloud rehabilitation system on motor dysfunction and activities of daily living (ADL) of stroke patients is not inferior to hemiplegia manual treatment. Methods This study adopted a multicenter randomized controlled trial design. A total of 118 stroke patients were enrolled from 5 hospitals in China between April 2018 and April 2019, and they were randomly divided into a trial group and a control group, with 59 patients in each group. The trial group adopted hemiplegia manual treatment (≥30 min per time, once a day) and cloud rehabilitation training (30 min per time, once a day), and the control group adopted hemiplegia manual treatment alone (≥30 min per time, twice a day). All patients received continuous treatment for 2 weeks, and followed up for 2 weeks after that. The Brunnstrom stage (BRS), IK exercise stage, and Modified Barthel Index (MBI) were used to evaluate the motor function and ADL before and 4 weeks after treatment. Results There was no significant difference in gender, age, course, hemiplegia side, source (inpatient/outpatient) or hospital grade between the two groups (P>0.05), which were comparable. Compared with those before treatment, there were significant improvements in the BRS (upper and lower extremities), IK exercise stages (upper and lower extremities), and MBI scores in both groups 4 weeks after treatment (P<0.05). The four-week improvements in motor function indicators (BRS and IK) of the trial group were not inferior to those of the control group (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in MBI score between the two groups 4 weeks after treatment (F=1.498, P>0.05). Conclusion The cloud rehabilitation system is not inferior to hemiplegia manual treatment in improving the limb motor function or ADL of patients .
ObjectiveTo retrospectively collect data on patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and explore the current status of medication adherence and its main influencing factors in China.MethodsAccording to the principle of convenience, 293 patients with COPD were enrolled in 16 tertiary hospitals located in Nanjing, Hefei, Wuhu, Xuzhou, and Chuzhou. The status quo and influencing factors of medication adherence in COPD patients were identified and analyzed by using the 8-item Morisky Drug Compliance Scale, Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and modified British Medical Research Council. The analysis was based on the framework provided by the WHO’s "five-dimensional determinants" and the mathematical relationship was demonstrated through sequential logistic regression analysis. ResultsThe medication adherence of the target population is 11.95%. A higher socio-economic status [odds ratio (OR) 0.30, 95% confidential interval (CI) 0.10 - 0.91], patients’ general beliefs about the medication utility (OR 0.29, 95%CI 0.17 - 0.50) and overuse (OR 0.30, 95%CI 0.16 - 0.55) were associated with a lower chance of being adherent in patients with COPD. While disease severity (OR 2.01, 95%CI 1.11 - 3.64) and types of drug use (OR 1.91, 95%CI 1.07 - 3.41) presented opposite results. ConclusionsMedication adherence in domestic patients with COPD is not satisfactory at the present stage. Effective ways to improve patients’ medication adherence and quality of life could be proposed from the national, living environment and individual three dimensions.
