Effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy on pain degree,cerebral cortex excitability and daily living ability in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury
Objective To investigate the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)therapy on pain degree,cerebral cortex excitability and daily living ability in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury.Methods A total of 92 patients with incomplete spinal cord injury admitted from January 2019 to October 2022 were selected and divided into control group(n=46)and study group(n=46)by random number table method.The control group was given routine rehabilitation treatment,and the study group was given rTMS treatment.The therapeutic effects of the two groups were compared.Results After treatment,the scores of Pain Rating Index(PRI),Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)and Present Pain Intensity(PPI)in the two groups were lower than those before treatment,and those in the study group were lower than the control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,the amplitude of motor evoked potential(MEP)in the two groups increased,the resting motor thershold(RMT)decreased,and those in the study group were better than the control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,the score of Modified Barthel Index(MBI)in the two groups increased,and that in the study group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The rTMS in the treatment of patients with incomplete spinal cord injury has good effect.It can effectively reduce the pain degree of patients,improve the excitability of cerebral cortex,and promote the improvement of daily living ability.It is worthy of clinical application and promotion.
