RESUMEN
Objective To observe the effect of blood-letting puncture and cupping therapy on patients with sensory dysfunction after stroke. Methods 60 patients with sensory dysfunction after stroke were randomized into treatment group (n=30) and control group (n=30). Both groups were treated with conventional medical treatment and rehabilitation therapy. The treatment group received blood-letting punc-ture and cupping therapy in addition, twice a week for 4 weeks. They were evaluated with Fugl-Meyer Assessment and modified Barthel In-dex (MBI) before and after treatment. Results The score of Fugl-meyer Assessment and MBI increased after treatment (P<0.01), and the scores were higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Blood-letting puncture and cupping therapy can improve the recovery of sensory dysfunction and activities of daily living of patients with sensory dysfunction after stroke.
RESUMEN
Objective To observe the effect of needle warming moxibustion on cognitive dysfunction after stroke. Methods 76 stroke pa-tients with cognitive dysfunction were randomly divided into treatment group (n=38) and control group (n=38). The treatment group re-ceived needle warming moxibustion and routine rehabilitation for 4 weeks, while the control group only received routine rehabilitation. They were assessed with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and activities of daily living (ADL) scale before and after treatment. Re-sults The score of MoCA and ADL improved in both groups (P<0.05), and improved more in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05) after treatment. Conclusion Needle warming moxibustion could improve cognitive function in patients after stroke and activities of daily living.
