Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of the community-based rehabilitation on schizophrenia. Methods 100 patients with schizophrenia from 4 communities were assigned to intervention group (n=50) and control group (n=50). The intervention group accepted comprehensive intervention for 6 months. All the patients were followed up for 12 months, and assessed with the Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS), Personal and Social Function Scale (PSP), the General Quality of Life Inventory (GQOLI-74). Results 48 cases of the intervention group and 44 of the control group finished the study. The scores of negative symptoms and general spirit pathology were less in the intervention group than in the control group (P<0.01). The score of PSP was more in the intervention group than in the control group (P<0.01), as well as the total score and score of dimensions of physical function, mental health and social function (P<0.05). Conclusion Community-based rehabilitation can control the mental symptoms, and improve the social function and the quality of life of patients with schizophrenia.
