Abstract

  Background: The blood stasis signs of tongue in stroke patients in the recovery stage need surveying and defining, classifying in detail. Objectives: To evaluate the presence of three blood stasis signs in stroke patients in the recovery stage. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional study based on 43 persons who were inpatients in Can Tho Traditional Medicine Hospital. Results: In 43 subjects, males account for 51%, and females make up 49%. The mean of age is 59. Regarding tongue’s substance, 95.2% of patients have dark color tongues, and 2.4% of patients have the purple and/or blue tongue. The presence of hematoma is 33.3%. The ratio of engorged sublingual veins is 84.4%, and the purple and/or blue on sublingual veins is 34.8%. Conclusions: The systematical evaluation of blood stasis signs will support for efficient treatment on stroke patients in the recovery stage.
