Abstract:
Objective:To apply the best evidence-based exercise intervention program for elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to clinical practice and evaluate its effectiveness.Methods:Based on the summary of previous evidence, a best evidence-based exercise intervention program for elderly MCI patients was constructed. Convenience sampling was used to select 86 elderly patients admitted to the Department of Geriatrics of Beijing Hospital and 21 medical and nursing staff participating in the implementation of the program as research subjects. The patients admitted from October 2022 to January 2023 were set as control group, and the patients admitted from May to August 2023 were set as intervention group, with 43 cases in each group. Control group was treated with usual exercise intervention, while intervention group received the best evidence-based exercise intervention program for elderly MCI patients. Knowledge scores of medical and nursing staff and the activities of daily living, grip strength, and cognitive function of two groups of elderly MCI patients were compared before and after the implementation of the program.Results:After the implementation of the program, the scores of the Knowledge Questionnaire for medical and nursing staff were higher than before implementation, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The scores of daily living activities and Montreal Cognitive Assessment of elderly MCI patients in intervention group were higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in grip strength between the two groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:Applying the best evidence-based exercise intervention program for elderly MCI patients in clinical practice can raise the management level of exercise intervention for elderly MCI patients by clinical medical and nursing staff and improve patient clinical outcomes.
