Abstract This case report demonstrated that electro-acupuncture treatment has improved the outcome of an adolescent with severe traumatic brain injury due to a traffic accident. The patient had a bilateral frontal hematoma, subdural hematoma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, stem hematoma and diffuse parenchymal swelling with the initial Glasgow Coma Scale score of E1V1M1. Daily electro-acupuncture therapy was prescribed with strong stimulation at GV 26 (Shuigou), PC6 (Neiguan) and EX-UE11(Shixuan) when the vital signs of the patient became stable. The patient had a full recovery of the consciousness in 30 days. The follow-up observation found that he has also restored the motor and speech functions. This result suggested a potential role of electro-acupuncture in the treatment of consciousness disturbance for patient with traumatic brain injury.

Paper Method

Community- and home-based daily intense cognitive rehabilitation (CR) of traumatic brain injury (TBI) clients was initiated on the basis on knowledge mentioned in Chapter 17. In the CR, statistically significant changes were demonstrated in attention and reading abilities in sixteen severe TBI clients by one-year daily CR. Improvement of memory and executive functions required more training periods as shown later. The temporary minimum scores of four neuropsychological tests required for social reentry, namely, 50 in TEA, 15 in RBMT, 80 in BADS and 40 in JART, were determined as a goal of our CR. In addition to the drill (pen and paper) method mainly using workbooks, a more advanced program for CR, particularly in clients who reached the required level, was developed together with the clients.
