Traditional Chinese medicine clinical experience of MA Ruofei in treatment of pediatric cerebral palsy
Although cerebral palsy(CP)can not be cured these days,it can be advanced by a variety of methods to improve function and to fulfill potential of children with CP,which medical rehabilitation plays an important part in them.MA Ruofei was committed to the therapy of CP in children with traditional Chinese medicine for more than 20 years.It summarized MA's three principles of treatment,which were the three stages of treatment,the three key points of treatment,and early intervention,respectively.The treatment addressed both the symptoms(paralysis)and root(brain)causes of the disease,with oral Chinese medicine as the mainly part,as well as,acupuncture,massage,physical therapy and other means of therapies compared with functional training.Since MA regarded the pathogenesis of CP was closely related to'phlegm'and'stasis',the therapies were focused on activating blood flow and removing blood stasis,besides eliminating phlegm and dredging collateral.'The quadruple regimen'was principally used to activating blood flow and removing blood stasis,while relieving constipation by purgation was emphasized.The basis of eliminating phlegm and dredging collateral was expressed by the self-developed'Yinao Tablet'applied in the brain injury stage,with the self-developed'Jiejing Capsules'applied in the sequela stage.Further more,on the basis of traditional kinesitherapy,a set of characteristic functional training was worked out according to different types and symptoms of children.
