Abstract:Objective:To study the effect of superficial needle combined with muscle energy technology on recovery of limb function of patients with post- stroke spastic hemiplegia. Methods: A total of 84 cases of patients with post- stroke spastic hemiplegia were selected as the study objects and divided into two groups by non-transparent envelope method, 42 cases in each group. The control group was treated with superficial needle,and the study group was additionally treated with muscle energy technology based on the treatment of the control group. After three treatment courses,clinical effects and limb function were compared between the two groups. Results:Scores of upper limbs and lower limbs in Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA) in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group,and the scores of Ashworth and Clinical Spasm Index(CSI) were significantly lower than those in the control group,differences being significant(P<0.05). The total clinical effective rate was 85.71% in the study group,significantly higher than that of 69.05% in the control group, the difference being significant(P<0.05). Conclusion: The therapy of superficial needle combined with muscle energy technology in the treatment of post-stroke spastic hemiplegia can relieve spasm and recover limb function with a good clinical effect.
