Abstract:
Objective:To explore therapeutic effect of pharyngeal treatment machine (PTM) combined resuscitating acupuncture (RA) on patients with dysphagia after stroke.Methods: A total of 98 stroke patients with dysphagia were selected.According to random number table, they were randomly and equally divided into pure pharyngeal treatment group (received pure PTM therapy based on routine treatment) and combined treatment group (received RA based on pure pharyngeal treatment group).Video fluorography (VFG) score and swallow-quality of life (SWAL-QOL) score before and after treatment, and total effective rate were evaluated and compared between two groups.Results: Compared with before treatment, there was significant rise in VFG score, and significant reduction in SWAL-QOL score in both groups after treatment, P<0.01 all;compared with pure pharyngeal treatment group after treatment, there was significant rise in VFG score [(5.46±2.04) scores vs.(6.54±2.75) scores], and significant reduction in SWAL-QOL score [(741.33±25.92) scores vs.(632.54±26.77) scores] in combined treatment group, P=0.032, 0.001 respectively.Total effective rate of combined treatment group was significantly higher than that of pure pharyngeal treatment group (93.88% vs.75.51%), P=0.014.Conclusion: Compared with pure pharyngeal treatment machine, pharyngeal treatment machine combined resuscitating acupuncture possesses better therapeutic effect for recovery of swallowing function, which is worth extending.
