The Impact of Brain Reflex Therapy Combined with Virtual Reality Training on Patients in the Recovery Phase of Cerebral Infarction
Objective To explore the effects of brain reflex therapy combined with virtual reality training on cognitive function,motor function,and quality of life in patients in the recovery phase of cerebral infarction(CI).Methods A total of 86 CI patients in the recovery phase admitted to Gongyi City People's Hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected as the research subjects.They were divided into an observation group(n=43)and a control group(n=43)according to the random number table method.The control group received conventional rehabilitation training,while the observation group received brain reflex therapy combined with virtual reality training.The cognitive function,motor function,and quality of life of the two groups were compared.Results After the intervention,the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)scores of both groups were higher than before the intervention,and the MMSE score of the observation group after the intervention was higher than that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).After the intervention,the Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA)scores of both groups were higher than before the intervention,and the FMA score of the observation group after the intervention was higher than that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).After the intervention,the World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version(WHOQOL-BREF)scores of both groups were higher than before the intervention,and the WHOQOL-BREF score of the observation group after the intervention was higher than that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of brain reflex therapy combined with virtual reality training in CI patients in the recovery phase can improve cognitive and motor functions and enhance the quality of life.
