Effects of acupuncture and balance facilitation of muscular tension on the early rehabilitation of patients with stroke and hemiplegia

Objective To explore the effects of acupuncture and balance facilitation of muscular tension on the early rehabilitatio n of patients with stroke and hemiplegia.Methods Divided the 96 patients with acute stroke hemiplegia into group A and Brandomly(group B as control) Evaluate the rehabilitation before and after therapy,and deal with the data in statistics.The courses are 26 t 28 days.In group A.stab negative channel and points of upper limb as well as positive channel and points of lower limb of paralysis side in flaccid paralysis tage,After the muscular tension resumed,stab positive points of upper limb and negative points of lower limb,and try to recover the balance of muscular tension,and avoid muscular spasm to establish normal moving pattern,Results Compared with control group,group A hac prominent difference on the process of musculwar tension resuming.Incidence rate of muscular spasm,the ration of reeducing of neurologic impairment scores and increasing of motor function integral(FMA),MBI of the ability of daily life(ALD)as well as index of quality of life(QLI),P&;lt;0.01, Conclusion A cuppuncture and balance facillitation of muscular tension are useful in the early rehabilitation in hemiplegia.

Elders’ Exercise and Behavioral Program: Effects on Balance and Fear of Falls

ABSTRACT

Aim: This controlled quasi-experimental study examined the effects of combined behavioral and exercise interventions on balance performance and fear of falls (FoF) among community-dwelling elderly. Methods: A total of 62 elderly (age = 63.5 ± 3.9 years) were divided into three groups, namely, (1) EBG (six-week exercise and five-week behavioral interventions), (2) EG (exercise only), and (3) CG (control). Balance and FoF were measured by the Timed Up and Go test and the modified Falls Efficacy Scales, respectively, at baseline and post-interventions. Results: Significant findings were found in the time effect (F = 40.56, p = 0.00), time and group interactions (F = 51.48, p = 0.00), and between-group effect (F = 20.85, p = 0.00) for balance. Similarly, significant findings were found in the time effect (F = 101.78, p = 0.00), time and group interactions (F = 33.39, p = 0.00), and between-group effect (F = 29.19, p = 0.00) for FoF. EBG showed significantly higher mean changes in both measures. Conclusion: The combination of behavioral and exercise interventions may positively affect balance control and reduce FoF among the elderly.
