Objective To observe the change of P300(EP) evoked potentials in pre-and-post acupuncture on post-stroke patientsv following depression.Methods According to Hamiltion Rating Scale for Depression(HRS-D),ninty post-stroke patients were divided into two groups: the depression group(n=63) received acupuncture at Ex-HN1 and Siguan Points and the non-depression group(n=31).After assessed and grouped by HRS-D,and one acupuncture therapeutic course for the depression group,two groups' subjects were tested with P300 potentials.Results Before treatment,the latency of P3 of P300 potentials was longer and the amplitude of P3 was lower in the patients of the depression group compared with the cases in the non-depression group;after the acupuncture treatment,the latency of P3 decreased significantly(P<0.01),and the amplitude of P3 increased significantly(P<0.05) in the patients of the depression group.Conclusion P300 potentials test can help find cognitive dysfunction in post-stroke patients following depression at early stage,and acupuncture treatment in time can lessen or eliminate depression motion of post-stroke patients.

Methods Divided 80 patients into the observation group and the control group randomly, there were 40 cases in each group. Routine nursing, treatment and disease-related lecture were used in both the groups, while the combined therapy of Chinese and Western medicine was used in the observation group in addition. Evaluated the quality of life and the effects of treatment by the World Health Organization′s quality of surviving chart between the two groups after 3-month intertention and 6-month follow-up. Results The scores of quality of environment field, physiology field ,psychological field, sociological field, independence field and mental field in the observation group was (70.33+16.85 ) (70.38+18.80), (71.43+18.28),(70.13+19.08), (73.10+17.70) and (75.38+7.30) respectively, while in the control group was (61.38+16.17), (56.70+17.69), (43.13+19.77), (55.00+19.08), (53.75+16.45) and (49.80+17.26) respectively, the difference between the two groups was significant, the t values were 2.424-8.631, P < 0.05. The effective rate of treatment in the observation group was 95.00%(38/40), while in the control group was 82.5%(33/40), the difference was significant, U=2.507, P < 0.05. Conclusions Special nursing intervention can promote the quality of life ,effects of treatment and the satisfaction of treatment in outpatients with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, improve their psychological state and the compliance.
