Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of abdominal acupuncture combined with exercise therapy on post-stroke spastic hemiplegia. Methods 120 patients with post-stroke spastic hemiplegia were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 60 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with abdominal acupuncture plus exercise therapy. The abdomen acupoints were taken at Chungwan, Hsiawan, Qihai, Guanyuan, Shangqu, Qipang, Huaroumen and Wailing. Exercise therapy was taken after acupuncture treatment. The treatment was taken every other day, 3 times a week for a total of 24 times. Control group only took simple exercise therapy which was consistent with the treatment group. Results The clinical efficacy and FMA scores of limbs before and after the treatment showed that the total effective rate of the two groups was significantly different(P＜0. 01), and there was significant difference(P＜0. 05) in FMA scores between the two groups after treatment. The FMA scores of the observation group after treatment were significantly different from those of the control group before treatment(P＜0. 01). Conclusion The effect of abdominal acupuncture combined with exercise therapy on post-stroke spastic hemiplegia is better than that of simple exercise therapy.
