Influence of Chinese medicine hot packages combined with modified Buyang Huanwu decoction on the quality of life of patients with hemiplegia after stroke
Objective To observe the influence of Chinese medicine hot packages combined with modified Buyang Huanwu decoction on the quality of life of stroke patients with hemiplegia.Methods A total of 85 patients with hemiplegia after stroke admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were randomly divided into two groups,and the control group(35 cases)was given a conventional western medicine basic treatment plus a rehabilitation training.On the basis of the control group,the study group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine hot packages combined with modified Buyang Huanwu decoction,and the course of treatment was two weeks in both groups.The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups,and the changes in the TCM symptom scores,muscle strength,limb function,walking and self-care ability in daily life[Lovett muscle strength scores,short Fugl-Meyer assessment scale(FMA)scores,1 0m maximum walking speed test(10 MWT)and modified Barthel index scale(BI)]were observed in the two groups before and after intervention.Finally,the improvement of quality of life scale(SF-36)scores was statistically analyzed in the two groups.Results The total clinical effective rate of the study group was 91.43%,significantly higher than that of the control group(68.57%)(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,the TCM symptom scores decreased in the two groups after treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease was more intense in the study group than that in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the Lovett muscle strength scores,FMA scores,10 MWT and BI scores increased in the two groups(P<0.05),and the increase was more intense in the study group than that in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of all the items in the SF-36 scale were higher in the study group than those before treatment(P<0.05),and the scores of vitality(VT),body pain(BP),general health(GH),physiological function(PF)and social function(SF)were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of Chinese medicine hot packages combined with modified Buyang Huanwu decoction can improve muscle strength,limb function,walking ability and self-care ability in the treatment of hemiplegia after stroke,which is conducive to the improvement of quality of life.
