Abstract:This paper introduced 1 case of applying acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine in treating a 6-year-old child with relapsing-remitting chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), which provided a new idea for preventing and treating CIDP. Methods:The child has received acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal medicine treatment for 3 months since October 1, 2015. A total of 15 months' follow-up was closely recorded from the admission to after treatment, and an objective assessment on therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal medicine and recurrence was made. Results:All the indexes of the child were improved, and there was no recurrence in 15 months' follow-up. Hughes index score was normal, and Barthel index score showed normal activities of daily living capacity, with limb muscle strength V, and a 3 kg increase in weight. Conclusion:Acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal medicine treating children with relapsing-remitting CIDP has significant curative efficacy and can effectively prevent recurrence. It can be used to verify a large sample in the future, so as to provide a new view to the prevention and treatment for CIDP.
