ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the clinical effect of group occupational training based on cognitive behavior on patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment. Methods:From May, 2018 to March, 2019, 56 patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment were randomly divided into control group (n = 29) and experimental group (n = 27). Both groups received routine rehabilitation, and the experimental group received group occupational therapy, three times a week, for twelve times. They were assessed with Montreal Cognition Assessment (MoCA), modified Barthel Index (MBI) and the Short Form of Health Survey (SF-36) before and after intervention. Results:The scores of MoCA, MBI and SF-36 increased in both groups after intervention (t > 2.275, P < 0.05), and their difference before and after intervention was more in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 2.835, P < 0.01). Conclusion:Group occupational training can improve the cognitive function of patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment and improve their activities of daily living and quality of life.
