To explore the effects of activating brain and regaining consciousness on inflammatory factors,neurological function and cerebral oxygen metabolism in patients with acute cerebral infarct (ACI).Methods:A total of 100 patients with ACI in Honghu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to January 2018 were randomly divided into an observation group (50 cases) and a control group (50 cases).The control group was treated with conventional therapy,and the observation group was added with acupuncture method of activating brain and regaining consciousness on the basis of the conventional therapy.The total effective rates,inflammatory factors (CRP,IL-6 and TNF-α),neurological deficit function (NIHSS score) and cerebral oxygen metabolism indexes (CaO2,D(a-jv)O2 and ERO2) were compared between the 2 groups.Results:The total effective rates were 90.00% in the observation group and 62.00% in the control group,and the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).The levels of CRP,IL-6,TNF-α,CaO2,D(a-jv)O2,ERO2 and NIHSS score in the 2 groups decreased significantly after treatment (P<0.05).Moreover,the levels of CRP,IL-6,TNF-α,ERO2,D(a-jv)O2 and NIHSS score in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:Acupuncture method of activating brain and regaining consciousness can reduce the inflammatory reaction,improve the blood supply and neurological function.It has significant clinical effects on ACI patients and is worthy of promotion and application.
