Abstract:

Objective To observe the effect of cognitive training based on PASS theory on cognition in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI).
Methods From August, 2018 to June, 2019, 42 patients with PSCI were randomly divided into control group (n = 21) and intervention group (n = 21). The intervention group accepted computer-assisted cognitive training based on the PASS theory, and the control group accepted routine computer-assisted cognitive training, for four weeks. They were assessed with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Lowenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment (LOTCA) before and after training.
Results There were 18 patients in each group finishing the trail. After training, the scores of MMSE and LOTCA increased in both groups (t > 8.831, P < 0.001), and increased more in the intervention group than in the control group ( t > 2.198, P < 0.05). For the LOTCA factors scores, it increased in orientation, visual perception, spatial perception, motion praxis, visuomotor organization and thinking operations in both groups ( t > 2.122, P < 0.05) after training, and increased more in the intervention group than in the control group in visual perception, spatial perception and thinking operations ( t > 2.356, P < 0.05), and the differences of visuomotor organization was more in the intervention group than in the control group ( t = 2.354, P < 0.05).
Conclusion Cognitive training based on PASS theory can improve cognition for patients with PSCI, especially for visual perception, spatial perception, thinking operations and visuomotor organization.
