description | Objective:To observe the effect of acupuncturing Zhaohai and Shenmai on lower limb balance function of stroke patients.Methods:80 stroke patients with lower limb balance dysfunction were randomly assigned to the treatment group and control group, with 40 patients in each group. Both groups received routine medical therapy and rehabilitation training, the control group was added with conventional body acupuncture therapy while the treatment group with acupuncturing Zhaohai with reducing approach and Shenmai with reinforcing approach once a day, the therapy course consisted of seven days of acupuncturing, and whole period lasted for four courses. Romberg rate and Fugl-Meyer assessment of balance were used to measure the lower limb balance function and assess muscle strength of stroke patients.Results:Closed eye/open eye length ratio, closed eye/open eye area ratio and FMA score of balance in both groups were increased significantly after four courses (<italic>P</italic><0.05), and there were significant differences between the two groups on closed eye/open eye length ratio, closed eye/open eye area ratio and FMA score of balance after four courses (<italic>P</italic><0.05). Active range of joint motion, passive range of joint motion and muscle strength in both groups were increased significantly after four courses (<italic>P</italic><0.05), and there were significant differences between the two groups on active range of joint motion, passive range of joint motion and muscle strength after four courses (<italic>P</italic><0.05).Conclusion:Acupuncturing Zhaohai with reducing approach and Shenmai with reinforcing approach promoted lower limb balance function restoration of stroke patients. |
