Abstract:
Objective? To discuss the effects of creatiue story therapy of the inpatients with moderate dementia. Methods? From January 2017 to June 2018, a total of 40 patients with moderate dementia from a ClassⅢ Grade A psychiatric hospital were selected as the research subjects. All the subjects were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 20 cases in each group. The control group was given routine nursing, while the experimental group received creatiue story therapy on the basis of routine nursing. The intervention lasted for 7 weeks. The Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE), Chinese Version of the Cohen-Mansfield Inventory (CMAI-CV) and Chinese Version of the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia (CSDD-CV) were applied to compare the effects of the two groups. Results? There was no significant difference in the total score of the MMSE scale between the two groups after 7 weeks (P＞0.05). The total score of CMAI-CV was (118.15±8.21) and the score of CSDD-CV was (4.01±1.34) in the experimental group after intervention, where were both lower than the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (t=-4.417,-6.535;P＜0.01). Conclusions? Creatiue story therapy can effectively improve cognitive function, reduce aggressive behaviors and improve depression in patients with moderate dementia.
