天柱傍针刺配合平衡区电针对脑卒中患者下肢运动功能及步行能力的影响

摘要

目的 观察天柱傍针刺配合平衡区电针对脑卒中患者下肢运动功能及步行能力的影响.方法 将100例脑卒中患者随机分为康复组、傍针刺组.康复组采用平衡训练及常规康复训练;傍针刺组在康复组基础上采用传统针刺加天柱傍针刺配合平衡区电针治疗.每日1次,每星期5次,连续治疗4星期.分别于治疗前、治疗4星期后用Fugl-Meyer下肢运动评分、10 m步行时间及Holden步行功能分级对两组患者下肢运动及步行能力进行评定.结果 4星期后两组Fugl-Meyer评分、10 m步行时间及Holden步行功能分级均较治疗前有明显提高(P<0.01);傍针刺组Fugl-Meyer、10 m步行时间及Holden功能步行分级均优于康复组(P<0.05).结论 在常规康复训练及针刺基础上,天柱傍针刺配合平衡区电针能提高脑卒中患者下肢运动功能评分,增强患者日常生活能力;增加患者步行安全性,从而减少跌倒风险.%Objective To observe the effect of proximal needling at Tianzhu (BL10) plus electroacupuncture at the Balance Zone on the lower-limb motor function and walking function in cerebral stroke patients.Method A hundred cerebral stroke patients were randomized into a rehabilitation group and a proximal needling group. The rehabilitation group was intervened by balance training and conventional rehabilitation exercises; the proximal needling group was intervened by proximal needling at Tianzhu plus electroacupuncture at the Balance Zone in addition to the treatment given to the rehabilitation group. The interventions weregiven once a day, 5 times a week, successively for 4 weeks. Prior to the intervention and after 4-week treatment, the lower-limb motor function and walking function were estimated by using lower-extremity Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), time taken for 10-meter walk, and Holden's Functional Ambulation Classification (FAC).Result After 4-week treatment, the FMA, 10-meter walk time and FAC were significantly enhanced in both groups compared to the indexes prior to the treatment (P<0.01); the FMA, 10-meter walk time and FAC in the proximal needling group were significantly superior to those in the rehabilitation group (P<0.05).Conclusion In addition to conventional rehabilitation and acupuncture, proximal needling at Tianzhuplus electroacupuncture at the Balance Zone can increasethe lower-limb motor function score and promote the activities of daily life in cerebral stroke patients; it can also strengthen the security in walking and keep the patients from falling down.
