In this study, we evaluated the effect of electroacupuncture on shoulder subluxation for stroke patients. Twenty hemiplegic patients with shoulder subluxation were randomly and equally divided into two groups. The subjects in the control group received conventional therapy, and the subjects in the study group were treated with electroacupuncture and conventional therapy for four weeks. The visual analog scale (VAS) for shoulder pain, motor function status, anthropometry, and X-ray assessment were used to evaluate the status of shoulder subluxation before and after treatment. The results indicated that the pain scores decreased in the study groups significantly more than those in the control group. The degrees of shoulder reduction, including the measurement of anthropometry and X-ray assessment in the study group, were more than those of the control group. However, the motor function status showed no significant difference between two groups. It is concluded that electroacupuncture can be an effective adjuvant management in the treatment of shoulder subluxation for stroke patients.
在本研究中，我们评估了电针对中风患者肩关节半脱位的影响。20例伴有肩关节半脱位的偏瘫患者被随机等分为两组。对照组患者接受常规治疗，研究组患者接受电针联合常规治疗，为期四周。采用视觉模拟评分法（VAS）评估肩部疼痛、运动功能状态、人体测量学指标以及X线评估，以评价治疗前后肩关节半脱位的状况。结果表明，研究组的疼痛评分较对照组显著降低。研究组肩关节复位程度，包括人体测量学指标及X线评估测量结果，均高于对照组。然而，两组之间的运动功能状态无显著差异。结论是，电针可作为中风患者肩关节半脱位治疗的一种有效辅助疗法。
