| Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS) combined with Twelve Jing-Well points bleedletting in treating limb dysfunction in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods: Ninety patients with acute ischemic stroke were randomly assigned to three groups: the TMS group, the bloodletting group, and the combined treatment group, with 30 patients in each group. In addition to routine treatment, the TMS group received TMS, the bloodletting group underwent bloodletting at the Twelve Jing-Well points, and the combined group received both interventions. All patients were treated for two weeks. The Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Barthel Index (BI), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were assessde before and after treatment, Results: Following treatment, FMA and BI scores significantly increased, while NIHSS scores significantly decreased in all three groups compared to baseline (P<0.05). The combined group demonstrated higher FMA, BI, and NIHSS scores than the TMS and bloodletting groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: TMS combined with Twelve Jing-Well points bleedletting effectively improves limb function and promotes neurological recovery in patients with acute ischemic stroke. |
