Brief summary
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the improvement of limb motor function and nerve function of patients with HTZZ during stroke rehabilitation. A total of 80 subjects will be randomly assigned to Huatuo Zaizao pill group or the control group.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial. Eighty patients with phlegm and blood stasis block syndrome of ischemic stroke were randomly assigned to Hua Hua reconstruction group or control group at a ratio of 1:1. The treatment period is 12 weeks. The purpose is to evaluate its efficacy and safety, provide an objective basis for precise treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, and improve clinical efficacy. The main result is the changes of MAS scores 12 weeks days after taking the drug. The secondary result is the change in NIHSS, Fugl-Meyer and BI.
Interventions
Patients take 8g of HuaTuo Zaizao pill three times a day. Treatment lasts for 12 weeks.
OTHERBasic treatment
It accordance with the Guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of ischemic stroke in China,and the drug and dosage will be formulated by the researchers according to the clinical situation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) | The change from baseline in Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) score at week 6 and 12 [Time Frame: Baseline,6th week±3 days, 12th week±3 days] | Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) measure spasticity. During the administration of MAS , the examiner passively moves the joint being tested and rates the perceived level of resistance in the muscle groups opposing the movement.It is single-item measures ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 indicates no increase in muscle tone and 4 indicates that the affected part is rigid in flexion or extension. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS ) | The change from baseline in National institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS ) score at week 6 and 12 [Time Frame: Baseline,6th week±3 days, 12th week±3 days] | The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is a 15-item measure of the effect of acute stroke on a variety of areas including level of consciousness, neglect, motor strength, facial palsy, ataxia, dysarthria, and sensory loss. |
| Fugl-Meyer | The change from baseline in Fugl-Meye score at week 6 and 12 [Time Frame: Baseline,6th week±3 days, 12th week±3 days] | The Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Sensorimotor Impairment (FM) is one of the first scales developed to quantitatively measure the recovery from hemiplegic stroke. It assesses recovery in five domains, including motor functioning of the upper and lower extremities, balance, sensation, joint range of motion, and joint pain in post-stroke patients. Each task is scored on a scale of 0-2, with 0 indicating the patient cannot perform the task and 2 indicating the patient can fully perform the task. |
| Barthel Index（BI） | The change from baseline in BI total score at week 6 and 12 [Time Frame: Baseline,6th week±3 days, 12th week±3 days] | The BI is a test used in healthcare to evaluate the people's daily self care activities. |
