Effects of moxibustion at Yongquan (KI 1) on cognition function and lower limb motor function in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency
To observe the effects of moxibustion at Yongquan(KI 1) on the cognitive function and lower limb motor function in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency.
Methods
2
Eighty-four patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency were randomly divided into an observation group(42 cases,1 case dropped off)and a control group(42 cases,1 case dropped off).The control group was treated with medication,electroacupuncture,rehabilitation training and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS);on the basis of the treatment as the control group,moxibustion at bilateral Yongquan(KI 1)was adopted in the observation group.Both groups were treated once a day,5 days a week with 2-day interval,4 weeks were required. The Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) score
modified fall efficacy scale (MFES) score and scale for the differentiation of syndromes of vascular dementia (SDSVD) score before and after treatment were observed in the two groups.

After treatment,the MoCA

FIM and MFES scores were higher than those before treatment in both groups (
P
<
0.05)
and the scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (
P
<
0.05). After treatment,the SDSVD scores were lower than those before treatment in both groups (
P
<
0.05)
and the SDSVD score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
Moxibustion at Yongquan(KI 1) can improve the cognitive function and motor and balance function of lower limbs in patients with post-stroke cognitive impairment of kidney essence deficiency,reduce the risk of fall and improve the quality of life.
