Abstract:
? Objective? To explore the application of tsusanli warming moxibustion in early rehabilitation in patients with cerebral infarction. Methods? Totally 120 patients with cerebral infarction and stable vital signs treated in the Department of Neurology of the First People's Hospital of Huzhou from January 2018 to March 2019 were selected using convenient sampling and divided into control (n=60) and observation (n=60) groups according to the random number table. Patients in the control group received routine drug therapy and rehabilitation care, while patients in the observation group received warming moxibustion, routine drug therapy and rehabilitation care. Bathel Index (BI), National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and myodynamia were used to compare the effects of intervention. Results? The total effective rate in the observation group was 91.3%, higher than 66.7% in the control group, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). The number of patients with a BI ≥ 75 in the observation group were more than that in the control group 2 and 3 months after treatment, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). The NIHSS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group 2 and 3 months after treatment, and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＜0.05). Conclusions? Tsusanli warming moxibustion combined with integrated Chinese and Western medical methods in routine rehabilitation care show an obvious effect on the neurological function in patients with cerebral stroke during early rehabilitation, which can also improve their activities of daily living.
