Abstract:
Objective: To investigate into the etiological factor,distribution of syndrome(patterns),pathogenesis features as well as the curative effects of small compound prescriptions of(Traditional) Chinese Medicine(TCM) in the treatment of acute stroke in stroke unit.Methods:(Cases) corresponding to diagnosis standards were randomly divided into control group(102 cases) and treatment group(156 cases).Conventional treatment methods were given to cases in control group.On the base of control group,small compound prescriptions were added to in treatment group,successively 14-21 days.The relation between types and time and TCM scale(TCMS),the NIH stroke scale(NIHSS) and Barthel index(BI) were observed in the two groups.Results: Stroke was age-related,the older,the more stroke patients.Stroke was closely related to hypertension.Ascending hyperactivity of liver yang was main type in the previous three days,this type(decreased) with the time going on.On the contrary,the type of wind phlegm and blood stasis was secondly main type in the previous three days,it increased with the time going on.Types of ascending hyperactivity of liver yang,wind phlegm and blood stasis as well as phlegm heat and constipation covered 95 per cent of all patients in the previous 21days.In the two groups,the mean scale of TCM and NIH decreased,and BI increased after treatment,this statistical difference could also be seen between the two groups.Conclusion: Excessive types are main types in the acute stage of stroke.Types of ascending hyperactivity of liver yang,wind phlegm and blood stasis as well as phlegm heat and constipation are its main types.Transferring of ascending hyperactivity of liver yang into endogenous wind may be trigger of reaction link of wind,fire,phlegm and blood stasis in TCM theory.Small compound prescriptions of TCM aiming to clearing away liver fire to stop wind,to activate blood for removing blood stasis and phlegm,to removing phlegm and heat from discharge can reduce scale of TCM and NIH,increase BI in the treatment of patients in stroke unit,which provide beneficial proofs for evaluation of effects of TCM.
