ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the clinical effects of scalp acupuncture combined with cognitive therapy on cognitive impairment after traumatic brain injury.Methods:
From June, 2016 to October, 2017, 60 patients with cognitive impairment after traumatic brain injury were randomly divided into scalp acupuncture group (n = 20), cognitive training group (n = 20) and combined group (n = 20), who accepted their own therapies for 40 times. They were assessed with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment.Results:
All the groups improved in the scores of MMSE, MoCA and MBI after treatment (F > 21.923, P < 0.001), which were the best in the combined group (F > 3.423, P < 0.05).Conclusion:
Combination of scalp acupuncture and cognitive training is more effective on cognitive impairment after traumatic brain injury.
