Abstract：Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of the combination of acupuncture and medicine in the treatment of patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in convalescent period of cerebral infarction and its effect on blood lipid metabolism and serum homocysteine(Hey).Methods:A total of 60 patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in convalescent period of cerebral infarction were divided into the control group and the observation group according to random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group received Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture combined with the symptomatic treatment and secondary prevention treatment of anti-platelet aggregation,stabilizing plaque,promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and nourishing cerebral nerves.The observation group was supplemented with modified Xiaoxuming Decoction(小续命汤)on the basis of the treatment of the control group.Both groups were treated continuously for 2 weeks.The clinical efficacy,National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score,Barthel index score,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome score,Hcy,blood lipid[low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)]levels of the two groups were observed and compared.Results:After treatment,the total effective rate was 90.00％in the observation group and 80.00％in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).After treatment,NIHSS score and TCM syndrome score of both groups were lower than those before treatment,and the observation group was lower than the control group(P＜0.05).The Barthel index score in both groups was higher than that before treatment,and the observation group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).LDL-C,TG,TC and Hcy levels in both groups were lower than those before treatment,and the observation group was lower than the control group(P＜0.05).HDL-C level in both groups was higher than that before treatment,and the observation group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The combination of acupuncture and medicine can improve the limb dysfunction of patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in the convalescent period of cerebral infarction,promote the quality of life of patients,and reduce the level of blood lipids and Hcy.
