Abstract
ObjectiveTo understand the interest in and influencing factors of cognitive rehabilitation for interns from rehabilitation therapeutics interns.
MethodsA total of 169 interns from rehabilitation therapeutics major who practiced in the department of neurorehabilitation, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University from 2020 to 2022 were selected as study subjects. A questionnaire was used to investigate their interest, cognitive status and influencing factors in cognitive rehabilitation. Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.
ResultsA total of 57.4% (97/169) of the interns were interested in cognitive impairment rehabilitation. The top three cognitive domains they were interested in were memory [65.0%(63/97)], attention [60.8%(59/97)] and executive dysfunction [48.5%(47/97)]. Compared with the dispensing student, the students who volunteered to fill in the rehabilitation major were more interested in cognitive rehabilitation (OR=3.41, 95%CI: 1.46~7.99); Students who rotated in the cognitive therapy room were also more interested in cognitive rehabilitation than students who did not rotate (OR=2.28, 95%CI: 1.12~4.63), the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).
ConclusionsRehabilitation therapeutics interns are generally interested in cognitive rehabilitation. It is necessary to further strengthen faculty development of teachers in cognitive rehabilitation, improve their clinical professional ability and teaching level, expand students′ knowledge acquisition pathways and clinical practice opportunities and actively explore diversified teaching modes, so as to increase students′ interest and learning intentions in cognitive rehabilitation.
