针刺留针时间与疗效关系的观察

目的:研究针刺治疗单纯性面神经麻痹中留针时间长短与疗效的关系.方法:将单纯性面神经麻痹患者60例随机分为两组,每组各30例,观察组针刺得气后留针10分钟,对照组得气后留针40分钟,每日1次,30天后统计疗效.结果:观察组痊愈率为90.0%,对照组为26.7%,统计学处理差异有非常显著性意义(P＜0.01);观察组平均治疗时间为11.8天,对照组为18.9天,差异有非常显著性意义(P＜0.01),观察组明显优于对照组.结论:治疗单纯性面神经麻痹,短时间留针比长时间留针疗效要好.

Clinical study on relation between needle retaining time and therapeutic effect

Objective To study on relation between needle retaining time and therapeutic effect in acupuncture treatment of simple facial paralysis. Methods Sixty cases of simple facial paralysis were randomly divided into observation group and control group,30 cases in each group. The observation group were treated by acupuncture with needle retaining of 10 min after arrival of the needling sensation,and the control group with needle retaining of 40 min,once each day. After 30 days,the therapeutic effects were calculated and analyzed. Results There were very significant differences between the two groups in the cured rate ( P <0.01) and therapeutic time ( P <0.01),the observation group being superior to the control group. Conclusion Too long needle retaining time is not proper for acupuncture treatment of simple facial paralysis.
