A randomized clinical observation of acupoint application combined with massage in the treatment of children with upper airway cough syndrome

Objective To explore the clinical effects of Tuina and massage combined with acupuncture on children with upper airway cough syndrome(UACS). Methods Seventy patients with pediatric UACS were randomly divided into a control group(35 patients)and a treatment group(35 patients). The control group was treated with osteopathic manipulation, and the treatment group was treated with the same manipulation as the control group as well as acupuncture. Results The total efficacy rates in the treatment group and the control group were 94.2% and 85.7%, respectively, though the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05). The efficacy rates in the treatment group and control group were 54.2% and 31.4%, respectively, and this difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Tuina and massage combined with acupuncture application demonstrated a strong therapeutic effect on pediatric UACS; the effects of Tuina and massage combined with acupuncture application in pediatric UACS were better than Tuina and massage alone, and this approach is suitable for clinical popularization.
