|
[Objective] To explore the influence of integrated Chinese and Western medicine on anxiety degree and subjective happiness
feeling in patients with cerebral infarction associated with anxiety. [Methods] Trait anxiety inventory (TAI) and Memorial University of
Newfoundland Scale of Happiness (MUNSH) were used to evaluate the condition of 60 patients with cerebral infarction associated with
anxiety. The patients participated in the study were randomly divided into Western medicine group and Combined traditional Chinese and
Western medicine group with 30 cases in each group. 8 weeks after treatment, TAI score and MUNSH score were tested. [Results] The
TAI score of patients in two group was obviously decreased with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The MUNSH score was
obviously increased in the combined traditional Chinese and Western medicine group. The result of comparison between the two groups
showed that the MUNSH score of patients in the combined traditional Chinese and Western medicine group were more obviously
improved compared with patients in the Western medicine group only, and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).
[Conclusion] The treatment of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine can obviously release anxiety and enhance subjective
happiness feeling in patients with cerebral infarction associated with anxiety. |
