Objective:To observe the effects of different lengths of needle-retaining time on the therapeutic results ofacupuncture treatment for ischemic wind-stroke. Methods:According to the severity of disease,251 casesof ischemic wind-stroke were randomly divided into 3 groups and treated by acupuncture,with theneedle-retaining time lasting 20,40,and 60 minutes respectively. Observation was mainly focused on thescores of nervous dysfunction and the clinical therapeutic results. Results:The comparison of the scores ofnervous dysfunction in the 3 groups before and after the treatment showed that under Wilcoxon’spair-match symbol rank test,except for horizontal gaze,other indexes all showed significant differences(P<0.01). In the between-group comparison before and after the treatment,there showed significant orvery significant differences in the indexes of myodynamia of the upper limb,myodynamia of hand and thetotal scores (P<0.05,P<0.01). In the between-group comparison by Mann-Whitney rank test of theindexes Of myodynamia of upper limb,myodynamia of hand and the total scores,the 20-rain. group andthe 60-min. group showed significant differences (P<0.05);and 40-min. group and 60-rain. group showedsignificant differences in myodynamia of upper limb (P<0.05). In comparison of the therapeutic effects ofthe 3 groups by Kruskal-wallis rank test,there showed very significant differences (P<0.01). In thebetween-group comparison by Mann-Whitney rank test,the 40-min.group and 60-min. group showedsignificant differences (P=0.013);while the 20-min. group and 60-min. group showed very significantdifferences (P=0.000). Conclusion:There is a time-effect relationship between the length ofneedle-retaining time and the therapeutic effects of acupuncture for ischemic wind-stroke.
