The Effect of Repeated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Combined with Butylphthalide in the Treatment of Cognitive Impairment after Ischemic Stroke
Objective:To explore the clinical effect of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with Butolphthalide treatment intervention on cognitive impairment patients after ischemic stroke and its effect on neurological and cognitive function.Method:A sample of 96 patients with cognitive patients after ischemic stroke in Zoucheng People's Hospital,the study period from June 2021 to June 2023,was divided into study group(n=48)and control group(n=48)by random number table method.Both groups of patients received basic treatment for stroke,the control group received additional treatment with Butylphthalide,the study group received additional treatment with repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with Butylphthalide.Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)scores,national institutes of health stroke scale(NIHSS)scores,Barthel index,mini mental state examination(MMSE)scores,and clinical effects of two groups were compared.Result:After treatment,the MoCA score of the study group was higher than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the NIHSS score of the study group was lower than that of the control group,and the Barthel index was higher than that of the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the MMSE score of the study group was higher than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The total clinical effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:Repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with Butyphthalide on incognitive impairment patients after ischemic stroke can improve cognitive function and neurological function,improve daily living ability,which has remarkable clinical effect.
