RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of different frequencies of acupuncture on the therapeutic effect in patients with cerebral infarction at convalescence. METHODS: Ninety-seven cases were randomly divided into an observation group I (n = 50) and an observation group II (n = 47). They were treated with same Chinese drugs and western medicine and electroacupuncture at Jiquan (HT 1), Quchi (LI 11), Hegu (LI 4), Huantiao (GB 30), etc. The observation group I was treated twice each day and the observation group II once each day. After treatment of 30 days, their therapeutic effects were observed. RESULTS: The total effective rate of 94.0% for improvement of limb activity in the observation group I was better than 78.7% in the observation group II (P < 0.05); the therapeutic effects for choking when taking water, dysphagia, vague mind and slurred speech were similar in the two groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The therapeutic effect of acupuncture twice each day on cerebral infarction at convalescence is superior to that of once daily.
