Efficacy of multimedia sensory integration training combined with speech training in the treatment of children with cerebral palsy and its effects on intelligence level and language function

Abstract

Objective To study the efficacy of multimedia sensory integration training combined with speech training in the treatment of children with cerebral palsy and its effects on intelligence level and language function. Methods A total of 146 children with cerebral palsy were randomly divided into the control group (speech rehabilitation training) and the study group (multimedia sensory integration training combined with speech training). The treatment effects were compared between the two groups. Results After the treatment, the intelligence age and DQ were significantly increased in the two groups (P<0.05), and the increase was more significant in the study group (P<0.05); the scores of cognitive function and speech function were significantly increased in the two groups (P<0.05), and the increase was more significant in the study group (P<0.05). The effective rates of treatment were 89.04% and 75.34% respectively in the study group and the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Multimedia sensory integration training combined with speech training can improve the intelligence level and language function of children with cerebral palsy, and enhance the treatment effect.
