Abstract:
Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of the combined therapy of daoyin prescription and cognitive training on vascular dementia(VD).Methods Totally 75 patients with VD were randomly divided into 3 treatment groups:daoyin prescription,cognitive training and two combined treatments(n =25 each) for 3 months.Mini mental state examination(MMSE),Loewenstein occupational therapy cognitive assessment(LOTCA)and activities of daily living scale(ADL)were used for assessing therapeutic efficacy among three treatment groups.Results There were no significant differences in baseline clinical data among the three groups (P ＞ 0.05),possessing data comparability.Scores of MMSE,LOTCA,ADL and LOTCA subitems of orientation,visual perception,spatial perception,visual movement,thinking operation and attention were significantly improved in the 3 groups after 3 months intervention versus pre-treatment with three treatments(all P＜0.01).There were significant differences in scores of MMSE,LOTCA,ADL and LOTCA subitems of orientation,visual perception,visuo-motor organization and attention between combination therapy group versus daoyin prescription group and cognitive training group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Combined treatments of daoyin prescription and cognitive training have better effect on vascular cognitive function in patients with and VD.It can markedly improve the activities of daily living and cognitive function.It is worthy of further research in clinical medicine.
