Objective:To observe the clinical effects of the warm-dredging needling method for cerebral infarction sequela.Methods:Sixty patients with cerebral infarction sequela in conformity with the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,30 cases in each group.The control group was given the basic treatment of Western medicine.The treatment group was added with acupuncture treatment based upon the treatment of Western medicine.The neurological defects of the patients were assessed before and after the treatments by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS).Results:The remarkable curative rate was 83.3%and the total effective rate was 93.3%in the treatment group,versus 56.7%and 70.0%in the control group,with statistical differences in the remarkable curative rate and the total effective rate between the two groups(P<0.05).After the treatment,NIHSS scores decreased in both groups(P<0.01 or P<0.05),and the difference was statistical significant between the two groups(P<0.01).Conclusion:The warm-dredging needling method was better than single treatment of Western medicine in the treatment of cerebral infarction sequela.
