Objective:The small sample randomized controlled clinical study compares two groups’ curative effect on bell’s facial paralysis during convalesce nce,the conventional acupuncture treatment and blood-letting&cupping the rapy combining with routine acupuncture therapy, in order to observe the clinical effect of blood-letting therapy&cupping therapy combining withro utine acupuncture therapy in treating convalescent stage of bell’s facia l paralysis. Method:Randomly divided the standard of 76 cases of bell’s facial paral ysis who were in convalescent stage as 1:1 into treatment group and contr ol group.The control group was received routine acupunture,the treatment group was given blood-letting&cupping therapy combining with routine acup uncture therapy. Scoring every patient on time,before treatment after 1 course of treatment(7days) and after 4 courses of treatment(28days) by HB grade and sunnybrook symptoms score scale.After 4 courses of treatment period,all scores were statistically analyzed by using spss19.0. Results:1.Baseline data:There was no difference in the two groups of pat ients in age,gender, disease side of the facial nerve,lesion segmenta nd if they had been treated before this study.(P>0.05).Before the experie ment,there was no difference between the House-brackmann(H-B) grade and sunnybrook symptoms score scale(P>0.05).The baseline of the two group wer e the same, the datas are comparable.2.After a course of treatment(7 days),there was no statistical s ignificance between the two groups in House-brackmann(H-B) grade,but com pared with pre-therapy the sunnybrook symptoms scores were improved signi ficantly(P<0.05).3.After 4 courses of treatment(28 days),the cases of two groups o f the House-brackmann(H-B)grade and sunnybrook symptoms scores had sign ificantly difference(P<0.01). Conclusion:To curing patients who were in convalescent stage of bell’s facial p aralysis both the treatment group and the control group had obvious effec ts.The short-term efficacy of the treatment group was better than the con trol group,which may improve the patient’s confidence,and enhance the treatment plan execution so as to promote rehabilitation indirectly.
