Abstract:
From January to July 2017, 872 high-risk middle-aged and elderly patients of stroke who visited general practice clinics in 10 community health service centers in Shanghai were enrolled in the study. Cluster randomization was used to select 427 patients from 5 community centers as the intervention group, and 445 patients from other 5 community centers as the control group. The intervention group received health education and traditional Chinese exercise training on the basis of conventional treatment;while the control group received conventional treatment only. After 12 months of intervention physical examinations and related laboratory tests were performed,and the risk factors were compared between two groups before and after the intervention. The results showed that there were significant differences in the systolic and diastolic blood pressure,blood urea nitrogen (BUN),creatinine (Cr) and homocysteine before and after the intervention in both groups (all P<0.05); and compared the control group the improvement of above indicators was more marked in the intervention group. There was no significant difference in cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein between the two groups before and after the intervention ( P>0.05). The health management with integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine can effectively control some risk factors of stroke for middle-aged and elderly people, which is beneficial for the prevention and control of stroke in the community.
