氙光低周波加封闭治疗腰腿痛的临床观察

我们对门诊就诊５２例腰腿痛病人，男３０人，女２２人，随机分为三组进行了对比观察。患者分组１（超短波组）、组２（Ｘｅｎｏｎ氙光低周波治疗组）和组３（氙光低周波加椎旁或硬膜外腔封闭组）。对于上述各组以ＶｉｓｕａｌＡｎａｌｏｇＳｃａｌｅ（ＶＡＳ）测痛法以疼痛为主要指标、快适度以舒适轻松程度为主要指标，就治疗前后自觉症状的改变进行了评价及统计学处理。结果表明：组３优于组２，组２优于组１，都具有显著性差异。本组结果提示日本医广公司生产的５５０／型氙光低周波治疗仪加激素类药物行椎旁或硬膜外腔封闭具有良好的协同作用，治疗效果显著。使ＶＡＳ痛苦度明显降低，同时治疗后还具有良好的舒适感，是治疗腰腿痛的好方法。

THE CLINICAL OBSERVATION OF THE TREATMENT OF LOW BACK AND LEGS PAIN USING XENON FLASH LOW FREGUENCY THERAPY AND NERVE BLOCK

The clinical effects of a Xenon Flash Low Frequency Therapy apparatus(Xenon 550) and Nerve block were evaluated in 52 outpatients with low back and legs pain in the pain clinic of the First Teaching Hospitol of in Norman Bethune University of Medical Sciences. 52 patients (male 30, fernal 22), were indivied into 3 groups: group 1 treated with ultrashort waves; group 2 receiving Xenon Flash Low Frequecy Therapy and groups 3 treated with Xenon Flash Low Frequecy therapy and nerve block in epidural space or intervertebral foramen. Clinical effects were evaluated by measuring changes in subjective symptoms and the comfort ability of each group before and after treatment by means of the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) and comfort level. The results showed that symptoms were signifciantly improved in the group 3 compared with the group 1 and 2. Our findings suggest that this appratus and nerve block of epidural spare or intervertebral foramen provided a new method for treating low back and legs pain with high comfort levels.
