- Abstract: Objective To explore the effects of acupuncture bloodletting combined with Tongfu Huatan Decoction on consciousness recovery time and electroencephalogram in patients with hemor-rhagic stroke.Methods A total of 100 patients with hemorrhagic stroke were randomly divided into control group and study group,with 50 patients in each group.The control group was treated with oral administration of Tongfu Huatan Decoction,while the study group received combined treatment of ac-upuncture bloodletting and Tongfu Huatan Decoction.Serological indicators[N-terminal pro-brain natri-uretic peptide(NT-proBNP),central nervous system-specific protein(S100β),aquaporin(AQP-1),and angiogenin 1(Ang-1)],consciousness disturbance scores[Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS),Full Out-line of Unresponsiveness(FOUR),and Coma Recovery Scale-revised(CRS-R)],electroencephalo-gram improvement,cerebral blood perfusion indicators[cerebral blood flow(CBF),cerebral blood volume(CBV)],consciousness recovery time,and the occurrence of adverse reactions and compli-cations were analyzed before and after treatment in both groups.Results Before treatment,there were no statistically significant differences in all indicators in two groups(P＞0.05).After treatment,the study group showed decreased levels of serum NT-proBNP,S100β,AQP-1,and Ang-1 in two groups,and showed significant differences between two groups(P＜0.05).The scores of GCS,FOUR,and CRS-R,as well as the levels of CBF and CBV increased in two groups,with more sig-nificant increase in the study group(P＜0.05).The improvement of electroencephalogram in the study group was significantly better,and the consciousness recovery time was shorter than that in the control group(P＜0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in adverse re-actions and complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture bloodlet-ting combined with Tongfu Huatan Decoction can enhance cerebral function,reduce cerebral dam-age,and shorten consciousness recovery time in patients with hemorrhagic stroke.
