ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of Taichi footwork assisted routine rehabilitation training on the influence of limb balance disorder in patients with hemiparesis after strokein the recovery period.Methods:A total of 60 patients with hemiparesis after stroke in our hospital from March 2017 to May 2018, who met the selection criteria, were divided into 2 groups by random number table method, 30 in each group. The conventional rehabilitation group took the conventional rehabilitation training method, and the Taichi footwork group took Taichi footwork training method based on conventional rehabilitation method. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. The Berg Balance Scale (BBS) was used to evaluate the patient's balance ability, the Holden Walking Aability Classification (HWAC) was used to evaluate the lower limb walking ability, and the Fugl-Meyer Motor Function Rating Scale (FMS) was used to assess the limb function.Results:After the treatment, the BBS score (44.4 ± 7.9 vs. 38.7 ± 9.9, t=4.885), the HWAC grade (3.6 ± 1.0 grade vs. 2.7 ± 1.0 grade, t=5.152) and FMS score (12.3 ± 1.4 vs. 10.4 ± 1.4, t=4.785) of the Taichi footwork group were significantly higher than those of the conventional rehabilitation group ( Ps<0.01). Conclusions:Taichi footwork assisted conventional rehabilitation training can improve the walking ability of patients with hemiparesis after stroke in the recovery period, which helps the patientsregain limb function.
ABSTRACT
Objective We tried to observe the effects of Chinese herb fumigation and washing combined with electromyographic biofeedback on stroke patients with muscle cramp on limbs.Methods 84 patients who had muscle cramp on limbs were selected and divided into two groups randomly,namely the intervention group and the control group and both groups had 42 stroke patients.The intervention group was treated with routine treatment,Chinese herbal fumigation and washing and electromyographic biofeedback treatment.The control group received only routine treatment and electromyographic biofeedback treatment.We had compared and analyzed the Ashworth Spasticity Scale and the Daily Life Abihty Score (Barthel index) of the two groups at the time of the pre therapy,two weeks after the treatment and at the end of the treatment(after four weeks),respectively.Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in Barthel index,however,there were significant differences in Ashworth Spasticity Scale scores between the two groups four weeks after treatment,t=-3.84,P ＜ 0.05.Conclusions The effect of Chinese herb fumigation and washing combining with the electromyo-graphic biofeedback treatment is better than usage of the electromyographic biofeedback treatment alone on stroke patients with muscle cramp on limbs.
ABSTRACT
s: Ninety-six cases of prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc of posterior protrusion type were divided randomly into observation group including 50 cases and control group including 46 cases.Patients in observation group were treated with combined use of acupuncture, traction and Tuina, and patients in control group were only treated with acupuncture. After treatment, the significant difference was found between the observation group and control group in therapeutic affect. The comprehensive therapy is definitely effective and simple in the treatment of prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc of posterior protrusion type, which has guiding significance to the clinical practice.
