针刺治疗中风后下肢痉挛状态的临床观察
【摘要】:研究背景
中风后痉挛是中风常见的后遗症,有多种不同的临床表现,包括肢体运动能力丧失,关节挛缩变形,并严重影响患者行走功能及日常活动。缓解肢体痉挛状态对于中风患者来说非常重要。许多研究报道表明针灸能够有效控制痉挛,但是没有数据化指标来证实疗效。
材料与方法
本研究将60例中风患者随机分为针灸组(治疗组)和康复训练组(对照组)2组。两组患者每周均治疗5次,疗程4周。观察指标:改良的Ashworth量表(MAS),临床痉挛指数量表(CSI),Barthel量表(B1),足印分析,及患者自我评价量表(PRO)。所有患者均来自北京中医药大学东直门医院。
研究结果
治疗4周后,两组治疗后较治疗前CSl分值显著降低(P0.005),但是针灸组与康复组CSl分值变化的组间比较有显著性差异(P0.05),针灸组优康复组。
下肢Ashworth量表评分明显下降,针灸治疗组,踝关节Ashworth评分由治疗前的2.73±0.82降至治疗后的1.86±0.81;膝关节Ashworth评分由治疗前2.33±0.66降至治疗后的1.6±0.49。针灸组与康复组组间有显著性差异,针灸组优于康复组(P0.05)。
两组Brathel量表评分均提高,针灸组较康复组提高显著(P0.05)。足印分析表明:两组患者患侧与健侧步长差均显著缩小,针灸组疗效更加显著(P0.05)。针灸组更有效改善足长与矫正步角(P0.05)。针灸组仅治疗1周患者步长与步角就出现改善,且改善明显优于康复组(P0.05)。
针灸组与康复组在步宽的改善上不明显。针灸组与康复组均使患者行走速度加快,但两组间没有显著性差异。针灸组有50%患者对治疗结果非常满意,康复组仅有6.7%对疗效非常满意,康复组有53%患者对疗效比较满意。
结论
针灸可显著改善中风后肢体痉挛状态,改善行走功能,和步态参数。可作为安全有效的治疗手段推荐给中风患者。足印分析是经济、有效的临床评价方法。
