等速肌力康复训练对阿尔茨海默病患者认知功能及运动功能的影响

目的:探讨等速肌力康复训练对阿尔茨海默病患者认知功能及运动功能的影响。方法:符合入组条件的40例阿尔茨海默病患者随机分为试验组和对照组,两组常规治疗相同,试验组在常规治疗的同时予等速肌力康复训练,两组治疗时间均为2个月。在纳入研究1周内和研究结束1周内进行认知功能和运动功能评价,对前后两次评分进行对比分析。结果:试验组患者与对照组比较,剑桥老年认知量表、Berg平衡、功能伸展测试、起立-行走计时测试改善差异有统计学意义,试验组明显优于对照组(P0.05)。结论:等速肌力康复训练能明显促进阿尔茨海默病患者的认知功能和运动功能的改善。

The Effect of Isokinetic Muscle Strength Training on Cognitive Function and Motor Function of Patients with Alzheimer's Disease

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the effect of isokinetic muscle strength training on cognitive function and motor function of patients with Alzheimer''s disease (AD). Methods: Forty patients with AD were randomly assigned to trial group and control group. All patients in both groups received conventional treatment, while the patients in the trial group received isokinetic muscle strength training at the same time. After two months, the cognitive function and motor function were assessed. Results: After two months, the trial group showed improvement in cognition CAMCOG whereas the control group declined. Compared to the control group, the trial group presented significant improvement on the functional capacity such as Berg balance, timed-up and go, as well as Functional reach. Conclusion: Isokinetic muscle strength training may be recommended as an augmentation treatment for patients with AD.
