Abstract:
Objective To observe the effectiveness of lactobacillus acidophilus combined with electroacupuncture on gastrointestinal function in patients with traumatic brain injury. Methods A total of 167 patients with traumatic brain injury treated in our hospital from June 2013 to December 2016 were randomly divided into combining treatment group (n=84) and lactobacillus acidophilus group (n=83). The lactobacillus acidophilus group was given routine treatment and lactobacillus acidophilus. The combining group was given the routine treatment, electroacupuncture treatment and lactobacillus acidophilus. Data of gastronintestinal function, infection, pH of gastric juice, serum two amine oxidase (DAO) and D-lacticacid level were compared between two groups. Results Compared with lactobacillus acidophilus group, the incidence rates of reflux (χ2=7.948), vomit (χ2=7.514), diarrhea (χ2=4.521), abdominal distension (χ2=5.968), pulmonary infection (χ2=4.521) and enterogenic infection (χ2=4.531) were significantly decreased in the combining treatment group (P<0.05). After 20-day treatment, pH value of gastric juice (t=8.125) was significantly increased, the serum DAO value (t=6.383) and D-lacticacid level (t=6.745) were decreased, in combining treatment group than those of lactobacillus acidophilus group (P<0.05). Conclusion Lactobacillus acidophilus combined with electroacupuncture can improve the gastrointestinal function, stimulate gastric acid secretion and decrease serum levels of DAO and D-lacticacid.
