Abstract
To explore whether acupuncture intervention can reduce the concurrent omalgia of ischemic stroke patients and initially explore the feasibility of follow-up research on long-term acupuncture.Three hundred patients who conformed to the research criteria and voluntarily took part in the research were randomized into an acupuncture group and a regular therapy group with envelope method. The 150 cases in the acupuncture group received the combined treatment of electroacupuncture (EA) and moxibustion based on regular treatments for a total of 4 weeks. The 150 cases in the regular therapy group received regular treatments. The omalgia incidence number were observed at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12 months follow-up, simplified Fugl-Meyer of the upper-extremity was evaluated 4 weeks after treatment, modified Rankin Scale was conducted to assess the number of relatively independent patients and the patients acceptance for acupuncture therapy at 6 months follow-up.
