Abstract：Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Jin's 3-needle combined with cognitive rehabilitation training in the treatment of cerebral stroke patients with cognitive impairment. Methods:Eighty patients hospitalized in the Department of Rehabilitation, Guangdong Hospital of Integrated traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, from January to December in 2016 were randomly divided into observation group(Jin's 3-needle combined with cognitive rehabilitation training) and control group(cognitive rehabilitation training) according to the principle of "minimum distribution of unbalanced index". During the treatment, 4 patients in the observation group were removed, and 2 patients were lost, while 4 patients in the control group were removed, 2 patients were lost. Finally, in the observation group there were 34 cases, and in the control group there were 35 cases. Before and after the treatment as well as 1 month after the treatment, the two groups were assessed with the mini-mental state examination(MMSE) for cognitive function and the modified Barthel index (MBI) scale for daily living ability. Results:After the treatment and 1 month after the treatment, MMSE score and MBI score were significantly improved than those before treatment(P＜0.05);the observation group was significantly higher than the control group on MMSE score and MBI score(P＞0.05);1 months after the treatment the observation group still showed better effect(P＜0.05). Conclusion:Jin's 3-needle com bined with cognitive training can effectively improve the cognitive function of patients with stroke and improve the self-care ability of daily life, showing better effect than the single cognitive training.
