摘要
目的探讨手球训练对养老院老年人认知功能的影响。方法将入选的60名养老院老年人随机分为训练组和对照组各30人。对照组维持原有的生活娱乐方式,如打扑克等,不进行干预;训练组在课题组人员的带领下进行手球训练,每周5d,每天30min,持续6个月。干预前后对两组分别进行基本认知能力测验。结果干预后训练组在数字拷贝、汉字比较反应时间及汉字旋转、心算答案广度、双字词再认、无意义图形再认方面评分显著优于对照组(均P<0.01)。结论手球训练可以在一定程度上改善养老院老年人的认知功能。
Objective To study the effect of handball training on cognitive function of elderly nursing home re.sidents. Methods A total of 60 elderly residents in a nursing home were randomly divided into a training group and a control group, with 30 cases in each group. Elderly residents in the control group maintained their living and recreational habits （eg. playing pokers）, while their counterparts in the training group received handball training led by the research team for 30 minutes every day,and the training intervention lasted for 6 months. Basic cognitive function of the two groups was evaluated before and after the intervention. Results After intervention, the training group had hig- her functional scores in digital copy, response time of comparing Chinese characters, rotation of Chinese characters, capacity of doing men- tal arithmetic, recognizing pairs of words, and meaningless picture recognition, than the control group （P〈0.01 for all）. Conclusion Hand- ball training can improve cognitive function of elderly nursing home residents to a certain degree.
