Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of edaravone combined with Shuxuetong in treatment of elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods120 cases of acute cerebral infarction,according to the different treatment methods,were divided into two groups.The conventional treatment was given in two groups,the control group plus Chuanqiong hydrochloride injection,and the observation group adopted edaravone and Shuxuetong.The clinical efficacy,activities of daily living(ADL) and neurological deficit score were compared between two groups.ResultsThere were 25 cases of basic recovery,18 cases of significant progress,progress in 12 cases in the observation group,total effective rate was 91.7% (55/60),the control group was 75.0% (45/60),the difference was statistically significant ( x2 =6.86,P < 0.05 ).Observation group had statistically significant difference than the control group between ADL and neurological deficit scores ( all P < 0.05 ).ConclusionOn the basis of conventional therapy,the use of edaravone combined with Shuxuetong for acute ischemic stroke patients could significantly promote the recovery of neurological function and was worthy of promotion.
