The effect of speech rehabilitation training combined with governor vessel acupuncture and tongue three points on language function and cognitive level of stroke aphasia patients
Objective To explore the effect of combined rehabilitation training with Du meridian acupuncture and tongue three needle acupuncture on language function and cognitive level in stroke patients with aphasia.Methods A hundred stroke aphasia patients who were treated at Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital affiliated with Capital Medical University from January 2022 to January 2023 were randomly divided into the control group(n=50,conventional speech rehabilitation training)and the observation group(n=50,conventional speech rehabilitation training+Du meridian acupuncture combined with tongue three needle treatment)using a random number table method.The intervention period for both groups was four weeks.The improvement of language function and cognitive level between the two groups was compared before and af-ter four-weeks of intervention,and record the changes in P300 latency and amplitude of cognitive event related evoked potentials.Results After four weeks of intervention,the difference in scores and aphasia quotient(AQ)of the Western Aphasia Battery(WAB)in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),the difference in scores and total scores of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA)was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05),the difference in P300 latency was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05),and the difference in amplitude was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions The combined treatment plan of speech re-habilitation training and Du meridian acupuncture combined with tongue three needles can effectively improve the language function and cogni-tive level of stroke aphasia patients.
