Effect analysis of manual therapy combined with electric traction in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy

ObjectiveTo explore the curative effects of manual therapy combined with electric traction in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy(CSR).MethodsEighty-eight patients with CSR were randomly divided into the observation group and control group using number table method(44 cases in each group).The control group was treated with conventional electric traction, and the observation group was treated with Mulligan manual therapy based on the control group for 4 weeks.The pain visual analogue(VAS)score, neck disability index(NDI)and clinical assessment scale cervical spondylosis(CASCS)score in two groups were compared between before and after treatment.The right and left rotation angles of the cervical spine in two groups were measured before and after treatment.The comprehensive curative effects in two groups after 4 weeks of treatment were evaluated.ResultsAfter treatment, the CASCS score significantly increased, and the VAS score and NDI significantly decreased in two groups(P < 0.01).After treatment, the CASCS score in observation group was higher than that in control group, and the VAS score and NDI in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group(P < 0.01).After treatment, the right and left rotation angles of the cervical spine in two groups significantly increased, and the right and left rotation angles in observation group were significantly larger than those in control group(P < 0.01).The total effective rates in the observation group and control group were 95.45% and 81.82%, respectively, but and the difference of which was not statistically significant(P>0.05).ConclusionsThe Mulligan technique manual therapy based on traditional electric traction for CSR can effectively improve the pain, dizziness and dysfunction, and improve cervical vertebra activity.This method is quick and easy to operate, and suitable for physical therapy of CSR.
