Methods： A total of 105 consecutively admitted patients with post-stroke dysphagia in the Affiliated Hospital of Gansu University of Chinese Medicine were included： 50 patients from the Department of Neurology and Rehabilitation received standard swallowing training and acupuncture treatment （acupuncture group）; 55 patients from the Department of Neurology received standard swallowing training only （control group）. Participants in both groups received 5-day therapy per week for a 4-week period. The primary outcome measures included the scores of Videofluoroscopic Swallow Study （VFSS） and the Standardized Swallowing Assessment （SSA）; the secondary outcome measure was the Royal Brisbane Hospital Outcome Measure for Swallowing （RBHOMS）, all of which were assessed before and after the 4-week treatment. Results： A total of 98 subjects completed the study （45 in the acupuncture group and 53 in the control group）. Significant differences were seen in VFSS, SSA and RBHOMS scores in each group after 4-week treatment as compared with before treatment （P〈0.01）. Comparison between the groups after 4-week treatment showed that the VFSS （P=0.007） and SSA scores （P=0.000） were more significantly improved in the acupuncture group than the control group. However, there was no statistical difference （P=0.710） between the acupuncture and the control groups in RBHOMS scores. Conclusions： Acupuncture combined with the standard swallowing training was an effective therapy for post-stroke dysphagia, and acupuncture therapy is worth further investigation in the treatment of post-stroke dysphagia.展开更多
目的:观察分析悬钟穴、丘墟穴为主穴电针治疗对肝肾亏虚型脑卒中后足下垂患者下肢功能的影响。方法:本研究选择80例肝肾亏虚型脑卒中后足下垂患者,随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组40例。两组均接受中药足浴和康复训练治疗,对照组给予普通...目的:观察分析悬钟穴、丘墟穴为主穴电针治疗对肝肾亏虚型脑卒中后足下垂患者下肢功能的影响。方法:本研究选择80例肝肾亏虚型脑卒中后足下垂患者,随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组40例。两组均接受中药足浴和康复训练治疗,对照组给予普通针刺治疗;治疗组选取悬钟穴、丘墟穴为主穴进行电针治疗。两组均每天治疗1次,每周治疗6天,共治疗4周。观察两组患者患侧足下垂及步行功能改善情况,治疗前后分别观察踝关节活动度(Active Range of Motion,AROM)、改良Ashworth量表(Modified Ashworth Scale,MAS)评分、Berg平衡量表(Berg Balance Scale,BBS)评分、Holden步行功能评定及中医证候积分,进行统计学分析,观察和评价电针悬钟穴、丘墟穴治疗本病的临床疗效。结果:治疗4周后,治疗组在足背屈角度、足内翻角度、MAS分级、Holden步行功能、BBS评分、中医证候积分改善等指标上均优于对照组。结论:以悬钟穴、丘墟穴为主穴电针治疗能够改善肝肾亏虚足下垂患者垂患者脑卒中后的中医证候,减小足下垂角度,显著改善足背屈功能,同时可减小足内翻,促进足外翻,并降低下肢肌张力,提升下肢的平衡能力。展开更多
