Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and Humanistic care treatment on Cognitive impairment patients. Methods: We invested 60 patients to join our study who were diagnosed as cerebrovascular disease or alzheimer disease, the diseases are cognitive impairment. Their diagnose time is from January 2019 to December 2019. We randomly assign the participants to two groups, that include control group (n=30) and intervention group (n=30). In control group, participants receive conventional responsibility mode of nursing. Intervention group participants receive humanistic care model in treatment process. Result: In Unplanned extubation rate of rTMS, the control group has more case of Unplanned extubation, it also has higher Unplanned extubation rate than that of intervention group [3 (10.0%) vs 7 (23.3%)]. In incidence of agitation, it shows the cases of intervention group are less than that of control group, and it is statistical significance (8 vs 13, p=0.014). In accurate response research, the intervention group has better performance in accurate response test, its accurate response rate is 86.7% and the case of accurate response is 26, that is better than that of control group in our research result. Conclusion: The effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and Humanistic care treatment is good for improve treatment outcome of cognitive impairment.

Highlights

  • Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique

  • The objective of this study is that assess the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and humanistic care treatment on cognitive impairment patients

  • The intervention group has better performance in accurate response test, its accurate response rate is 86.7% and the case of accurate response is 26, that is better than that of control group in our research result

Summary

Introduction

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique. RTMS may exert therapeutic value have been hypothesized, such as inducing changes in cerebral blood flow, neuro-endocrine effects, neurotransmitter levels, and connectivity between different brain regions [10,11,12]. Prevalence of cognitive impairment increases with age and is projected to increase with rising life expectancy in developed as well as Yingxue Zhong et al.: Evaluating the Effect of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) and Humanistic. Cognitive impairment is a growing public health concern throughout the world It can cause a series of problems, that increase the risk of falls and dis-ability and worsen the health-related quality of life in older adults [15]. The objective of this study is that assess the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and humanistic care treatment on cognitive impairment patients
