Objective:By observing Body weight support task-specific training with electro-acupuncture therapy on incomplete spinal cord injury.Methods:According on the American Spinal Injury(ASIA)neurological classification of spinal cord injury to international standards(6thedition,2006)classification of the extremely poor,the 24 cases of thoracolumbar spinal cord injury were classified into two groups,the A group with 12 cases were given normal rehabilitation and body weight support task-specific training;the B group with 12 cases were given normal rehabilitation and body weight support task-specific training and Electro-acupuncture therapy.Compare the data about ASIA for lower extremity motor assessment,assessment of walking ability,ADL evaluation,motor evoked potential value of the determination of the potential between two groups.Results:The data about ASIA for lower extremity motor score,ADL score,walking ability score,10m walking time required to somatosensory and motor evoked potential latent value of the score,there was extreme difference in decreases of the clinical scores of the A group and B group(P<0.05) after eight weeks treatment.A comparison group before and after treatment were significantly different(p<0.05);B group compared before and after treatment were significantly different(p<0.05).The pre-treatment score have no significant difference(p>0.05)between two groups.Conclusion:Conventional rehabilitation,normal rehabilitation and body weight support task-specific training and Electro-acupuncture therapy improve on incomplete spinal cord injured patients walking ability and activities of daily living and subtraction than normal rehabilitation and body weight support task-specific training more significant effect.Combination therapy use on incomplete spinal cord injury as a method of clinical benefit in patients with more functional recovery,and the value of further study.
