Abstract:
Objective In order to explore the effects of rehabilitation training and acupuncture on the neural function deficit and motor function in patients with ischemic streke.Methods Eighty patients with ischemic stroke were randomly divided into rehabilitation and acupuncture groups.According to different recovery stages,the rehabilitation group received purposeful rehabilitation training for 28 days while the acupuncture group received scalp needling combined with body acuptmcture.The neural deficit scores(NDS)and motor fimction comprehensive assessment(FCA) were evaluated at the recruitment(M_0),the 28~(th)(M_1)and 56~(th)(M_2)days after treatment.Results No significant difierences were found in the NDS and motor FCA between the rehabilitation and the acurluncture groups at the recruitment.The significant differences appeared at the 28~(th) and the 56~(th) days comparing with baseline assessments in each group.There was no significant difference in the changes of NDS and motor FCA between the two groups at 28~(th) day,however,the NDS and motor FCA in rehabilitation group revealed better outcome than the acupuncture group at the 56~(th) day.Conclusion The study indicated that both rehabilitation training and acupuncture could improve the neural function and enhance the motor function in patients with ischemic stroke.
