[ Effects of early acupuncture on motor function of the limb in the severe head injury patients ] . UNLABELLED OBJECTIVE ; To observe the effects of early acupuncture on motor function of the limb in the severe head injury patients . METHODS Ninety-six patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group , 48 cases in each group . The patient in the control group were treated by routine treatment of neurosurgical operation and drug treatment ( Mannitol , Citioline Sodium , Cefeazidime , etc. ) . While the patient in the observation group were treated by the routine treatment and acupuncture treatment 48 h ( -1 ) week after operation in different stages with different acupoints selected when the situation was stable . The selected main points were Neiguan ( PC 6 ) , Qu-chi ( LI 11 ) , Waiguan ( TE 5 ) , Hegu ( LI 4 ) , Binao ( LI 14 ) , Jianyu ( LI 15 ) , Fengshi ( GB 31 ) , Xuehai ( SP 10 ) , Yinlingquan ( SP 9 ) , Sanyinjiao ( SP 6 ) , Taichong ( LR 3 ) , etc.. The limb motor function was evaluated with Fugl-Meyer Assessment ( FMA ) scale before treatment and after 10-week treatment . RESULTS There was a significant improvement in the FMA score in the two groups after the treatment ( P < 0.01 ) . The comparison between the two groups after the treatment showed that the improvement of FMA score in the observation group was significantly better than the control group ( P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 ) . CONCLUSION Early acupuncture can improve the limb motor function in the severe head injury patients .
