Abstract

Spastic hemiplegia is a common clinical condition in patients with ischemic stroke, which has a significant impact on their motor function and quality of life. A large number of clinical studies have shown that acupuncture has significant advantages in treating spastic hemiplegia after stroke, and it is worth further promoting and applying in clinical practice due to its simple operation, high safety, and mild side effects. The commonly used clinical methods for acupuncture therapy of spastic hemiplegia after ischemic stroke include filiform needle therapy, electroacupuncture therapy, fire needle therapy, warm needle therapy, and other different acupuncture methods and acupoint selection methods, which can promote the recovery of limb motor function in patients. However, there is currently no clear international standardized treatment plan for acupuncture therapy. In the future, we should strengthen the rigor of clinical practice and research, and strive to contribute to the improvement of the quality of life of stroke patients.
