Abstract

Objective To investigate a method of acupuncture for improving the curative effect on acute cerebral infarction.Methods One hundred patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 60 cases and a control group of 40 cases.The treatment group was treated by medication plus acupuncture and the control group,only by medication.A neural deficit was evaluated at 12 days after treatment in both groups.Results The curative effect was obviously better in the treatment group than in the control group;there was a very significant difference(P0.01).There was a significant difference in neural function recovery between acupuncture within and beyond one week after the attack(P0.05).Conclusion Early acupuncture treatment has a better effect on acute cerebral infarction.
