Analysis of the influence of mirror therapy combined with Zhengan Xifeng Decoction on the recovery of limb function in stroke patients with wind formation from yin deficiency syndrome
Objective To study the efficacy of mirror therapy combined with Zhengan Xifeng Decoction on the recovery of limb function in stroke patients with wind formation from yin deficiency syndrome.Methods 60 cases of stroke patients with wind formation from yin deficiency syndrome were selected and divided into a control group and a study group according to random envelope method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was treated with Zhengan Xifeng Decoction,and the study group added mirror therapy for rehabilitation training based on Zhengan Xifeng Decoction.Patients in both groups were compared in terms of life ability(Barthel index),neurological impairment[National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score],extremity motor function[Fugel-Meyer Assessment(FMA)score],symptom score and quality of life.Results After treatment,the study group had higher Barthel index of(62.28±5.34)points than(56.63±5.57)points in the control group,and lower NIHSS score of(17.95±2.20)points than(24.53±3.66)points in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,FMA scores of upper extremity and lower extremity of the study group were(50.28±3.41)and(29.97±2.51)points,which were higher than(43.39±4.82)and(24.49±2.38)points of the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of headache and dizziness,hemianopsia,limb numbness,consciousness disturbance,nausea and vomiting,dysphagia in the study group were(1.04±0.24),(1.07±0.31),(0.85±0.19),(0.93±0.20),(0.76±0.11),(0.77±0.12)points,which were lower than(1.43±0.29),(1.55±0.22),(1.37±0.41),(1.52±0.22),(1.39±0.44),(1.33±0.27)points in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of physical function,role-physical,bodily pain,general health,vitality,mental health,role-emotional and social function in the study group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Mirror therapy combined with Zhengan Xifeng Decoction has obvious effect on stroke patients with wind formation from yin deficiency syndrome,which can effectively improve patients'life ability,limb motor function and quality of life,alleviate clinical symptoms and reduce neurological impairment,and is worthy of promotion as the main treatment.
