Abstract:

Stroke, with its high incidence and disability rate, imposes a heavy burden on patients, families and society, urgently requiring safe and effective new treatment methods. Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) is a non - invasive therapy that combines traditional Chinese meridian theory with modern physical factor therapy. Stimulating specific acupoints can not only improve functional disorders such as movement, swallowing, urination and defecation, but also regulate neuropsychological problems such as post-stroke depression and cognitive impairment. Moreover, TEAS can help prevent and treat complications such as deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities and post-stroke fatigue. TEAS has unique clinical application value in the rehabilitation treatment of stroke. This article systematically reviews the progress in clinical application and mechanisms of TEAS in stroke rehabilitation treatment, and proposes future research directions to promote the standardized and precise application of TEAS.

摘要:

脑卒中因其高发病率和病残率,给患者及其家庭和社会造成沉重负担,亟待安全有效的新型康复治疗手段。经皮穴位电刺激疗法是将中医经络学说与物理因子治疗相结合的非侵入性治疗方法,通过刺激特定穴位,不仅改善运动功能、吞咽功能、大小便功能和认知功能,而且缓解脑卒中后抑郁、疲劳等神经心理问题,并有助于预防脑卒中后下肢深静脉血栓等并发症,在脑卒中康复治疗领域具有独特的临床应用价值。本文系统梳理经皮穴位电刺激疗法在脑卒中康复治疗中的应用进展、作用机制,并展望未来研究方向,以推动经皮穴位电刺激疗法的规范化与精准化应用。
