蒙台梭利教育对老年性痴呆患者认知功能影响的研究

摘要

目的 评价蒙台梭利教育干预对改善老年痴呆患者认知功能的效果。方法 试验对象选取符合纳入标准、排除标准的老年性痴呆患者33例，均于2017年1月至2018年6月在我院星湖门诊治疗，均在常规干预基础上实施蒙台梭利教育，比较患者干预前后简易智能量表、日常生活能力量表(ADL)评分。结果 与干预前相比，患者干预后简易智能量表评分更高、ADL评分更低，经t检验得出差异存在统计学意义（Ｐ＜0.05）。结论 蒙台梭利教育干预有利于改善老年性痴呆患者认知功能、日常生活能力提高，值得在临床应用和推广。

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effect of Montessori education intervention on improving cognitive function of senile dementia patients.
Methods: Thirty-three patients with Alzheimer's disease who met the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria were treated in our hospital's Xinghu clinic from January, 2017 to June, 2018. All patients were given Montessori education on the basis of routine intervention, and the scores of simple intelligence scale and daily living ability scale (ADL) were compared before and after intervention.
Results: Compared with before the intervention, after the intervention, the scores of patients' simple intelligence scale were higher and ADL scores were lower, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).
Conclusion  : Montessori education intervention is beneficial to improve cognitive function and daily living ability of patients with Alzheimer's disease, and it is worthy of clinical application and promotion.
