电针加穴位注射治疗急性痛风性关节炎疗效观察

目的:寻找治疗急性痛风性关节炎的新方法。方法:将60例急性痛风性关节炎患者随机分为电针结合穴位注射组(电针穴注组)和西药组,每组30例,分别采用电针结合穴位注射及口服西药治疗,观察2组的临床疗效,并于治疗前、后分别测定患者血清尿酸的含量。结果:两组疗效比较差异有非常显著性意义(P<0·01);电针穴注组镇痛效果及降血尿酸效果均优于西药组(均P<0·01)。结论:电针结合穴位注射是治疗急性痛风性关节炎的有效方法,且可降低血尿酸。

Observation on therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture combined with acupoint-injection on acute gouty arthritis

Objective To search for a new method for treatment of acute gouty arthritis. Methods Sixty cases of acute gouty arthritis were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group were treated with electroacupuncture combined with point-injection, and the control group with western medicine. Their therapeutic effects were observed and serum uric acid contents were detected before and after treatment. Results There was a very significantly difference between the two groups in the therapeutic effect ( P<0.01 ) and the analgesic effect in the treatment group was better than that in the control group ( P<0.01 ). The treatment group was superior to the control group in decrease of blood uric acid (P<0.01). Conclusion Electroacupuncture combined with point-injection is an effective method for treatment of acute gouty arthritis, and it can decrease blood uric acid content.
