Zhoubo plus uncaria tincture in the treatment of cerebral concussion sequelae
Abstract
[Purpose] This study investigated the clinical efficacy of the compound gouteng tincture combined with Zhoubo (GT-ZB) in treating the sequelae of cerebral concussion (CC) in children. [Subjects and Methods] Sixty children with CC-sequelae were randomily divided into a treatment group and a control group, with 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was treated using GT-ZB, and the control group was treated using the standard method of venoruton, dibazol, and Vitamin B6. The efficacies of the two treatments were compared. [Results] Compared with the control group, the clinical symptoms and signs in the treatment group were significantly mitigated. [Conclusion] GT-ZB demonstrated efficacy in treating the sequelae of CC in children, and it is worthy of further studies and possible clinical recommendations.
