Résumé
@#ObjectiveTo study the effect of facilitation techniques combined with acupuncture on movement function and activity of daily living(ADL) of the stroke patients.Methods200 patients with stroke were divided randomly into 4 groups,group A for facilitation techniques with acupuncture,group B for facilitation techniques only,group C for acupuncture therapy only,and group D for control.The recovery grades of the Brunnstrom and Functional Independent Measure(FIM) were applied to assess movement function and ADL before and after treatment.ResultsThe number of patients whose limbs recoveried up to Brunnstrom 4 in group A、B、C after treatment was higher than that in group D as while as the scores of FIM(P<0.05).The FIM scores and the number of patients whose whose limbs recoveried grades(>4 grades) of the Brunnstrom in group B and C were no difference(P>0.05),The FIM scores and the number of patients whose recovery grades(>4 grades) of the Brunnstrom in group A were significant higher than that in group B and C (P<0. 05).ConclusionsFacilitation techniques combined with acupuncture can improve the movement function and ADL of the stroke patients.
