Abstract:Objective: To observe the clinical effect of Yiqi Huoxue Tongluo tang combined with western medicine for ischemic stroke in recovery stage of qi deficiency and blood stasis type.Methods:Divided 120 cases of patients with ischemic stroke of qi deficiency and blood stasis type in recovery stage randomly into the control group and the observation group,60 cases in each group.Both groups were given routine western medicine for treatment,while the observation group was additionally given Yiqi Huoxue Tongluo tang.Both groups receivedtreatment for 8 weeks.Evaluated the clinical effect.Observed changes of scores of Chinese medicine syndrome,National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS),modified Rankin scale,clinical spasticity indexes(CSI),scores of modified Ashworth scale and Barthel indexes(BI)before and after treatment.Results:The total effective rate was 79.31%in the control group and was 96.55%in the observation group,the difference being significant(P< 0.05).After treatment of four and eight weeks,scores of Chinese medicine syndrome,NIHSS and modified Rankin scale in both groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment(P<0.05).The above three scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group at the same period(P<0.05).After treatment,CSI and scores of modified Ashworth scale in both groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment,while BI in both groups were increased when compared with those before treatment(P < 0.05).CSI and scores of modified Ashworth scale in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P < 0.05),while BI in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The therapy of Yiqi Huoxue Tongluo tang combined with western medicine for ischemic stroke in recovery stage of qi deficiency and blood stasis type can effectively improve clinical symptoms,promote the recovery of nerve function and enhance activity of daily living of patients.
