Both groups were treated for 7 days. The scores of TCM syndromes were performed before and after treatment, and the improved SPIEGEL sleep scale was used to evaluate the sleep quality of the children, and to evaluate the efficacy of crying and TCM syndromes.Results:After treatment, the scores of the primary and secondary symptoms in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 44.449, 46.204, 56.476, respectively, all Ps<0.001); SPIEGEL sleep scale score (4.7 ± 0.9 vs. 8.3 ± 1.4, t=14.715) was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.01).
