Methods: 64 patients with AD were selected, and the admission period was from January 2018 to January 2020. All patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 32 cases in each group. The therapeutic effects of the two groups were compared. Results: after intervention, the scores of MOCA and life ability of the two groups were increased compared with those before intervention, the experimental group increased significantly (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the MMSE score of the experimental group was significantly higher (P < 0.05). Conclusion: cognitive function training combined with activities of daily living training intervention for AD patients significantly improved their cognitive function and intellectual state and promoted their physical rehabilitation.展开更多

Methods: in June 2021-June 2022 for intercept research time interval, a total of 60 cases of acute stroke hemiplegia, random principle specification grouping, control group received 30 cases of routine treatment, observation group received 30 cases of early rehabilitation treatment, around the upper and lower limb function assessment score, daily life ability evaluation score, balance function, cognitive function scale evaluation score and complication rate data line to compare. Results: before the treatment work, the evaluation results, daily life ability, balance function, and cognitive function evaluation results showed no difference (P> 0.05), and the results were higher (P <0.05);for the complication rate, the observation group showed lower results (P <0.05). Conclusion: for acute stroke cases, early rehabilitation treatment, which can improve the function of upper and lower limbs, strengthen their living ability, balance function and cognitive function, and prevent complications in patients, which is worthy of clinical application.展开更多

However, the rehabilitation effect of water weight-loss training in stroke patients is currently unclear. Objective: To analyze the effect of water weight loss walking training in stroke patients. Methods: A total of 180 stroke patients admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were selected and randomly divided into two groups. The control group received routine walking training, and the research group performed weight loss walking training in water on this basis. The lower limb motor function, muscle tone grade, daily living ability, gait and balance ability were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results: Compared with the control group, the FMA-LE score (Fugl-Meyer motor assessment of Lower Extremity), MBI score (Modified Barthel Index) and BBS score (berg balance scale) of the study group were higher after treatment, and the muscle tone was lower (P Conclusion: Water weight loss walking training can enhance patients’ muscle tension, correct patients’ abnormal gait, improve patients’ balance and walking ability, and contribute to patients’ motor function recovery and self-care ability improvement.展开更多
