Abstract:

Method Two hundred patients with craniocerebral injury were randomized into a treatment group and a control group. The control group was given regular intervention, while the treatment group was given foot fumigation with Wen Jing Tong Luo powder plus auricular point sticking with magnetic pearls. The pain intensity, the use of analgesics,and satisfaction degree with the treatment were evaluated in 1-4 d after the craniocerebral injury. Result The pain intensity in the treatment group during 1-4 d after the injury was significantly lower than that in the control group (P< 0.01); the total dosage of analgesics used in the treatment group was significantly smaller than that in the control group (P<0.05); the satisfaction degree in the treatment group during 1-4 d after the injury was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01),and the satisfaction degree in the treatment group on the first day after the injury approached to that in the control group on the 4th day after the injury.
