Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of acupuncture combined with computer speech disorder correction training in the treatment of children with autism.Methods A total of 108 children with autism admitted to the Department of Pediatrics,Puyang Oilfield General Hospital Affiliated to Xinxiang Medical University from December 2019 to December 2021 were selected as the research subjects.According to the treatment methods,the children were divided into the control group and the observation group,with 54 children in each group.The children in the control group received computer speech disorder correction training,while the children in the.observation group received acupuncture treatment on the basis of the control group,and all children were treated for 4 months.Before and after treatment,the severity of symptoms of children was evaluated by the childhood autism rating scale(CARS),the treatment effectiveness of language function of children was evaluated by the language delayed development test(S-S method),the abnormal behavior of children was evaluated by the autism behavior checklist(ABC),and the central nervous system function of children was evaluated by the Gesell development scale(GDS).The satisfaction of the children's family members was evaluated by the Chinese version of critical care family satisfaction survey(C-CCFSS).Results There was no significant difference in the CARS score of children between the two groups before treatment(P＞0.05);after treatment,the CARS score of children in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference in the CARS score before and after treatment in the control group(P＞0.05);the CARS score of children in the observation group after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment(P＜0.05).The total effective rates of language function therapy of children in the control group and observation group were 83.33％(45/54)and 96.30％(52/54),respectively;the total effective rate of language function therapy of children in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(x2=4.960,P＜0.05).Before treatment,there was no significant difference in the each item scores and scores total scores of ABC of children between the two groups(P＞0.05);the each item scores and total scores of ABC of children in the two groups after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05);after treatment,the each item scores and total scores of ABC of children in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Before treatment,there was no signifi-cant difference in GDS score of children between the two groups(P＞0.05);after treatment,the GDS score of children in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference in GDS score of children before and after treatment in the control group(P＞0.05);the GDS score of children in the observation group after treatment was significantly higher than that before treatment(P＜0.05).The satisfaction of family member of children in the control group and the observation group was 81.48％(44/54)and 94.44％(51/54),respectively.The satisfaction of family member of children in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(x2=4.285,P＜0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture combined with computer speech disorder correction training can effectively improve the severity of the clinical symptoms and abnormal behavior of children with autism,promote language function and intellectual recovery,and has high family satisfaction,which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
