ABSTRACT
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.
