Abstract
Objective: To investigate whether the combination of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and auricular point pressure bean could effectively ameliorate postoperative affective disorder in elderly patients suffering from cerebral hemorrhage.
Methods: From June 2020 to September 2023, 116 elderly patients with depression after cerebral hemorrhage, who underwent surgical procedures were divided into the exposure group and the control group. The division was determined based on whether received rTMS and traditional Chinese medicine auricular point pressure bean therapy. Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression scale (HAMD), National Institutes of Health Stroke scale (NIHSS), Montreal Cognitive Assessment scale (MoCA) and Mini Mental State examination scale (MMSE) were collected and compared between before intervention and after intervention.
Results: In accordance with a 1 : 1 matching ratio, the patients in the study were paired using propensity score matching (PSM), with 53 patients in both the exposure group and the control group. There were no notable differences in baseline characteristics between the 2 groups (P > .05). Following the intervention, the HAMA score and the NIHSS score of the exposure group were markedly lower than those of the control group (P < .001). Additionally, theMoCA scores (P = .001) and MMSE scores (P < .001) in the exposure group were significantlyhigher. The difference score have a significant difference in HAMA score (P = .001), NIHSS score (P < .001), MoCA (P < .001) and MMSE scores (P < .001).
Conclusion: The combination of rTMS therapy and auricular point pressure bean therapy in traditional Chinese medicine demonstrates can effectively relieve the anxiety level, postoperative emotional and cognitive disorders of elderly patients after intracerebral hemorrhage, and provide certain ideas and support for clinical treatment.
