Résumé
Dans cet article, les auteurs décrivent un programme de réhabilitation comportementale pour patients souffrant de schizophrénie. Le programme combine la réhabilitation occupationnelle à l’entraînement cognitif, s’attaquant ainsi à deux des déficiences marquantes de ce trouble chronique. En plus de cibler ces deux types de déficiences, les auteurs ont aussi examiné l’impact de l’une sur l’autre. En effet, des recherches suggéraient que les déficiences cognitives peuvent indiquer une limite à la réhabilitation psychosociale de ces patients. L’intention des auteurs était d’examiner si le fait de remédier spécifiquement à ces déficits cognitifs mènerait la réhabilitation occupationnelle à des résultats supérieurs. Après une description détaillée du programme, ils présentent des données à l’appui de l’efficacité de ce type d’approche, à la fois pour améliorer les fonctions cognitives et mener à de meilleurs résultats fonctionnels.
Abstract
In the present paper, we describe a behavioral rehabilitation program for patients with schizophrenia. The program combines vocational rehabilitation with cognitive training, thereby addressing two of the hallmark impairments of this chronic disorder. In addition to targeting these two types of impairments, we also wished to investigate the impact of one on the other. Specifically, previous research has suggested that cognitive impairments may serve as rate-limiters in the psychosocial rehabilitation of patients with schizophrenia. Our intent was to investigate whether specifically addressing and remediating these cognitive deficits would in turn lead to superior outcomes in vocational rehabilitation. Following a detailed description of our program, we offer initial support for the efficacy of this type of approach in both improving cognitive function as well as leading to better functional outcomes.
Resumen
En este artículo, los autores describen un programa de rehabilitación comportamental para los pacientes que sufren de esquizofrenia. El programa combina la rehabilitación ocupacional con el entrenamiento cognitivo, enfrentándose así a dos deficiencias que marcan este trastorno crónico. Además de enfocarse en estos dos tipos de deficiencias, los autores también examinan el impacto de una en la otra. De hecho, los estudios sugieren que las deficiencias cognitivas pueden indicar un límite en la rehabilitación psicosocial de estos pacientes. La intención de los autores fue examinar si el hecho de remediar específicamente estos déficits cognitivos lleva a la rehabilitación ocupacional a resultados superiores. Después de una descripción detallada del programa, presentan datos que apoyan la eficacia de este tipo de enfoque para mejorar las funciones cognitivas y, al mismo tiempo, conducir a mejores resultados funcionales.
Resumo
Neste artigo, os autores descrevem um programa de reabilitação comportamental para pacientes que sofrem de esquizofrenia. O programa associa a reabilitação ocupacional ao treinamento cognitivo, combatendo, assim, duas das deficiências marcantes deste transtorno crônico. Além de tratar destes dois tipos de deficiências, os autores examinaram também o impacto de uma sobre a outra. De fato, as pesquisas salientaram que as deficiências cognitivas podem indicar um limite na reabilitação psicossocial destes pacientes. A intenção dos autores era examinar se o fato de remediar especificamente estes déficits cognitivos levaria a reabilitação ocupacional a resultados superiores. Após uma descrição detalhada do programa, eles apresentam dados para apoiar a eficácia deste tipo de abordagem para melhorar as funções cognitivas e ao mesmo tempo levar a melhores resultados funcionais.
