ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the rehabilitation effect of modern rehabilitation concept combined with TCM intervention on cerebral palsy in children. Methods: A total of 89 children with cerebral palsy in our hospital were selected as study subjects and randomly divided into observation group (n = 45) and control group (n = 44). The control group used modern rehabilitation concepts to intervene. The observation group adopted modern rehabilitation concepts combined with comprehensive Chinese medicine interventions to compare the two groups before and after treatment of limb motor function (GMFM score evaluation), daily life ability (Barthel index evaluation) and total treatment efficiency. Results: The difference of GMFM score and BI index between the two groups before intervention was not statistically significant (P>0.05). After the intervention, the above two indicators were both increased, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The scores of GMFM and BI in the observation group were higher than those in the control group after intervention (P<0.05), suggesting that the improvement of limb motor function and daily living ability was greater. Conclusion: The concept of modern rehabilitation combined with the comprehensive intervention of TCM in children with cerebral palsy has a satisfactory rehabilitation effect, which is conducive to the recovery of limb movement function and daily living ability. It is easy to operate and has low treatment cost, and it is worthy of promotion and application.
