Methods： A total of 154 cases with post-stroke insomnia were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group by the random digital table, 77 cases in each group. The control group was treated by auricular acupoint sticking, while the observation group was treated by auricular acupoint sticking plus music therapy, to compare the clinical effects at the end of the treatment and three months after the treatment between the two groups. Results： At the end of treatment, the total effective rate was 98.7% in the observation group, remarkably higher than 89.6% in the control group, with a statistically significant difference between the two groups （P〈0.05）. Three months after the end of the treatment, the total effective rate was 90.9% in the observation group, remarkably higher than 80.5% in the control group, with a statistically significant difference between the two groups （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Auricular acupoint sticking plus music therapy was affirmative in the clinical effects for post-stroke insomnia, providing a new idea to design a best nursing and rehabilitative plan for the patients with post-stroke insomnia.展开更多

Methods： Sixty patients with post stroke hiccups who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into two groups according to their visiting sequence, and 30 patients in the treatment group were treated by acupuncture plus auricular point sticking, while the other 30 in the control group were treated by Metoclopramide via intramuscular injection. The efficacy was observed after the 3-day treatment. Results： The total effective rate in the treatment group was 93.3%, while 66.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant （P〈0.01）. Conclusion： Acupuncture plus auricular point sticking therapy was more effective than metoclopramide in treating post stroke hiccups.展开更多
