Rehabilitation Effect of Acupuncture on Acupoints of Du Meridian and Neuromuscular Activation Technology Combined with Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction on Patients with Ischemic Stroke
Objective To explore the rehabilitation effect of acupuncture on acupoint of Du Meridian and neuromuscular activation technology combined with Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction on patients with ischemic stroke.Methods A total of 78 patients with ischemic stroke admitted to Yixing Sixth People's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the research objects,they were divided into a control group and an observation group with 39 cases in each group.The control group was treated with acupuncture at the meridian points of Du Meridian,and the observation group was treated with acupuncture at the meridian points of Du Meridian and neuromuscular activation technology combined with Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction.The time of symptom improvement,the degree of neurological impairment,the motor function and language function of limbs and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The improvement time of dizziness,headache,nausea,vomiting and limb weakness in the observation group was(3.86±0.79)d,(3.14±0.70)d,(2.92±0.65)d,(5.19±1.17)d,respectively,which were shorter than(4.75±1.03)d,(4.27±1.04)d,(3.51±0.83)d and(6.74±1.33)d in the control group,and the differences between the groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the score of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale of the observation group was(4.46±0.82)points,which was lower than(5.93±1.03)points of the control group,the score of Fugl-Meyer Assessment and Chinese RehabiIitation Research Center Aphasia Examination were(89.32±9.17)points and(48.46±7.58)points,respectively,which were higher than(82.31±7.79)points and(41.21±6.39)points in the control group,and the differences between the groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the observation group was 7.69%,which was lower than 20.51%in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at the acupoints of the Du Meridian and neuromuscular activation technology combined with Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction can rapidly improve the clinical symptoms of patients with ischemic stroke,promote the recovery of nerve function,limb function and language function,and reduce the risk of complications.
