[Randomized controlled study on reinforcing method of acupuncture for treatment of Bell's palsy at restoration stage].

OBJECTIVE
To observe clinical therapeutic effect of reinforcing method of acupuncture on Bell's palsy at restoration stage.


METHODS
One hundred and sixty cases were randomly divided into two groups: an observation group and a control group, 80 cases in each group. The observation group were treated by acupuncture with lifting-thrusting-twirling reinforcing method, and the control group by acupuncture without needling manipulation. The therapeutic effect, and changes of palsy index, degree of palsy and ENoG were observed.


RESULTS
Reinforcing method of acupuncture could significantly improve palsy index, degree of palsy and maximal wave amplitude of ENoG; the cured and markedly effective rate was 91.3% in the observation group and 75.0% in the control group with a very significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01).


CONCLUSION
The reinforcing method of acupuncture can increase the therapeutic effect on Bell's palsy at restoration stage.
