Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of early multidisciplinary rehabilitation therapy on stroke patients.Methods 80 cases of acute stroke were randomly divided into the rehabilitation group (n=40) and control group (n=40). All patients of two groups were treated with routine treatment, and those of the rehabilitation group were added with early multidisciplinary rehabilitation therapy. The degrees of clinical neural function defect, motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) of all patients in two groups were assessed by the clinical neural function defect assessment (NIHSS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and Barthel Index (BI) before and one month after treatment.Results The scores of NIHSS, FMA and BI of patients in two groups were not different before treatment ( P>0.05). After treatment, the scores of patients of the rehabilitation group were significantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0.01).Conclusion Early multidisciplinary rehabilitation therapy can improve the neural function, ADL and raise the quality of life of post stoke patients.
