Abstract
Cerebrovascular disease(CVD) is marked by loss of consciousness. facial palsy and hemiparesis. Although being treated properly in acute stage. CVD is accompanied by various sequelae. So treatment of sequelas is great importance as much as in acute stage. Man Geum Tang(MGT) and Bo Yang Whan O Tang(BYWOT) are representative general prescription for sequelae of CVD. This study is to clarify comparatively the efficiency of MGT and BYWOT. 110 Patients who were administrated with either MGT or BYWOT over 2 weeks for treatment of CVD divided into 2 groups:53 patients(27 males and 26 fomales. average $63.58{\pm}9.48$ years old) adminstated with MGT and 57 patients (32 males and 25 females. average $65.84{\pm}8.93$ years old) with BYWOT. In the patients administrated with MGT. 15 patients were with cerebral hemorrhage and 38 patients were with cerebral infarction. 57 BYWOT group consisted of 27 patients with cerebral hemorrhage and 30 patients with cerebral infarction. MGT with cerebral hemorrhage and 30 patients with cerebral infarction. MGT was administrated for $15.18{\pm}2.43$days and BYWOT for $14.24{\pm}1.24days$. Motor improved significantly(9〈0.005) from grade after administration in upper and lower extremities respectively. In view of comparative effeciency. the grade of motor disturbance after administration in upper extremities showed insignificant(p〉0.005) change to $1.19{\pm}1.18\;and\;0.89{\pm}1.13$ in MGT and BYWOT group respectively. In lower extremities. the grade changed insignificantly (p〉0.05) to $1.26{\pm}1.08\;and\;1.18{\pm}1.10$ respectively. In the patients group with cerebral infarction. the grade of motor disturbance in MGT and BYWOT administration groups respectively were $0.84{\pm}0.14\;and\;0.60{\pm}0.15$ in upper exemities and $0.89{\pm}0.14\;and\;0.90{\pm}0.17$ in lower extremities. The significant difference between two groups didn't appeared. In cerebral hemorrhage patients the grade of motor disturbance were in upper extremities $2.07{\pm}0.33$ in MGT group and $1.59{\pm}0.29$ in BOWOT group and $2.20{\pm}0.26\;and\;1.59{\pm}0.28$ in lower extremities respectively. The difference between two groups were insignificant(p〉0.05).
