Intervention effect of family participatory language rehabilitation training based on WeChat platform on aphasia after stroke
Objective:To explore the intervention effect of family participatory language rehabilitation training based on WeChat platform on post-stroke aphasia(PSA).Methods:Totally,80 PSA patients admitted to our hospi-tal from September 2021 to June 2023 were collected and randomly divided into a conventional group(n=40,receiv-ing routine rehabilitation education)and a research group(n=40,receiving family participatory language rehabilita-tion training using WeChat platform as a carrier on the basis of the routine group)using a random number table method.All patients received regular speech training during their stay in the hospital.The patient's language train-ing compliance was determined.Before and after 3 months of intervention,the patients'language function was as-sessed by the western aphasia battery(WAB),which was calculated as aphasia quotient(AQ),and the patients'communication ability was assessed by the Chinese functional communication profile(CFCP).Results:The training compliance rate of the research group was 97.50%,which was higher than the 80.00%of the conventional group(P<0.05).Before intervention,there were no statistically significant differences in the WAB 4 scores,AQ values,and CFCP scores between the two groups.After 3 months of intervention,the WAB scores,AQ values,and CFCP scores in both groups were higher than before intervention(P<0.05),and those in the research group were higher than in the conventional group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Conducting family participatory language rehabilitation training on WeChat platform for PSA patients can obviously improve training compliance,effectively improve lan-guage function,and significantly enhance AQ and communication skills.
