RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the factors influencing the therapeutic effect in acupuncture treatment of apoplectic pseudobulbar palsy (PBP). Methods: Sixty patients with apoplectic pseudobulbar palsy in pattern of obstruction of wind and phlegm in the meridians were randomly divided into the treatment group and control group, to observe the therapeutic effect. Results and Conclusion: The therapeutic effect was significantly better in the treatment group than in the control group (P＜0.05). It has been found in the study that with increase in the occurrence of cerebral apoplexy, the incidence rate of severe dysphagia increased and dysphagia took place progressively earlier, indicating the importance of early treatment and prevention of cerebral apoplexy.
