Acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease (AICD) poses a severe threat to human health, characterized by high incidence and disability rates. Western medicine currently offers multiple treatment methods, such as thrombolysis, anticoagulation, and cerebral circulation improvement, while traditional Chinese medicine demonstrates unique advantages in herbal prescriptions, proprietary Chinese medicines, acupuncture, and massage therapies. Integrative treatment approaches combining Chinese and Western medicine have become widespread in clinical practice, yet challenges remain in optimizing specific treatment plans and elucidating mechanisms of action. This paper aims to comprehensively analyze the current status of integrative treatment for AICD, outline its developmental trajectory, and provide insights for enhancing treatment efficacy.
