Abstract:
Objective To analyze the application effectiveness of combining stepwise rehabilitation training and electroacupuncture therapy for postoperative motor function recovery in elderly patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage(HICH).Methods A total of 102 elderly eligible patients admitted in our department from July 2022 to July 2024 were prospectively recruited and randomly divided into a control group(postoperative stepwise rehabilitation training on the basis of routine treatment)and a study group(electroacupuncture therapy besides all the treatments the control group received),with 51 cases in each group.The neurological deficits,motor function recovery and activities of daily living were compared between groups before treatment and at 1 and 3 months after treatment.Serum-related factors,quality of life and prognosis in the two groups were evaluated before treatment and at 6 months after treatment.Results At 1 month and 3 months after treatment,the study group exhibited significantly higher scores of upper limb motor function,lower limb motor function and Barthel index while obviously lower score of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)when compared to the control group(P<0.01).The study group also had significantly higher scores of psychological function,physiological function,environmental adaptability and social function than the control group at 6 months after treatment(P<0.01).At this time point,there was a lower ratio of patients with poor prognosis in the study group than the control group(21.6%vss 41.2%,P<0.05).Conclusion Stepwise rehabilitation training combined with electroacupuncture therapy shows an obvious efficacy in elderly HICH patients,and can help to improve the postoperative neurological function,and promote the motor function recovery.
