目的为了验证多伦多面神经评定系统对老年贝尔麻痹评价存在某种缺陷。方法将62例患者按年龄分为青年组(18～40岁)和老年组(66～80岁),比较经电针治疗的两组患者,病程在1个月内、3个月内及3个月以上的面神经评分差别。结果 62例患者中,程度在1个月内,两组面神经评分差异有统计学意义(t1=3.40,P<0.01);病程在3个月以内和3个月以上,两组面神经评分差异无统计学意义(t2=0.23,P>0.1;t3=0.33,P>0.1)。结论多伦多面神经评定系统存在对病变较轻的老年贝尔麻痹患者评分偏低,面神经严重程度估计过高的缺陷。
Purpose To verify that the Toronto Facial Nerve Assessment System has some flaws in the evaluation of senile Bell’s palsy. Methods Sixty-two patients were divided into young group (18-40 years old) and elderly group (66-80 years) by age. The two groups of patients treated by EA were compared within one month, three months and three months Facial nerve scores more than a month difference. Results There were significant differences in facial nerve scores between the two groups within one month (t1 = 3.40, P <0.01). The course of disease was within 3 months and above 3 months. There was no difference in facial nerve scores between the two groups Statistical significance (t2 = 0.23, P> 0.1; t3 = 0.33, P> 0.1). CONCLUSIONS: The Toronto Facial Nerve Assessment System has the drawback of underestimating the severity of the facial nerve in elder patients with mild-grade Bell’s palsy.
