Abstract:
Objective To investigate the computer-assisted cognitive training (CACT) on cognitive function and functional independence of stroke patients. Methods Sixty patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: the CACT group and the control group. All patients received routine training. Patients in the CACT group received computer-assisted cognitive training additionally. Before and after the CACT, the cognitive function and functional independence of patients were assessed by MMSE, MoCA and FIM assays. Results Before the CACT, no significant differences in the scores of MMSE, MoCA and FIM were found between the two groups (P > 0.05). After the CACT, scores of MMSE, MoCA and FIM were improved in both groups, especially in the CACT group, with statistical differences (P < 0.05). Conclusions CACT can help improve the cognitive function and functional independence in stroke patients.
