摘要
In the present paper, the therapeutic effects of otopoint pellet pressing plus body acupuncture and simple body acupuncture for dysphagia and water drinking induced coughing are compared in 126 cases of pseudobulbar paralysis who are randomly divided into treatment group (n=63) and control group (n=63). Main acupoints used are Shuigou (GV 26), Fengchi (GB 20), Lianquan (CV 23) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6), while otopoints used are Xin (MA IC), Gan (MA SC 5), Pi (MA IC), Shen (MA SC), Yanhou (MA T 3) and She (MA L). Following one course of treatment (12 sessions), in treatment group, of the 63 cases, 34 (54.0%) are cured, 18 (28.5%) have remarkable improvement, 5 (8.0%) have improvement, and 6 ( 9.0%) have no apparent changes, with the tottal effective rate being 90.5%; while in control group, of the 63 cases, 18 (28.5%) are cured, 11 (17.5%) have marked amelioration, 15 ( 24.0%) experience apparent amelioration and 19 (30.0%) have no obvious changes, with a total effective rate of 70.0%. The therapeutic effect of otopoint pellet pressing plus body acupuncture is significantly superior to that of simple body acupuncture in the treatment of dysphagia and water drinking induced coughing.
