电针配合麦粒灸治疗腰椎间盘突出症疗效观察

目的观察电针配合麦粒灸治疗腰椎间盘突出症的临床疗效。方法将60例腰椎间盘突出症患者按随机数字表法分为观察组和对照组,每组30例。观察组予电针配合麦粒灸治疗,对照组予单纯电针治疗。观察治疗前后的临床疗效、M-JOA评分及SF-MPQ评分,并进行对比分析。结果观察组总有效率为93.3%,与对照组比较差异有统计学意义(P0.05);两组治疗后M-JOA评分均升高(P0.05),SF-MPQ评分均下降(P0.05),观察组改善更明显,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论电针配合麦粒灸治疗腰椎间盘突出症疗效优于单纯电针治疗。

Therapeutic Observation of Electroacupuncture plus Wheat-grain Moxibustion for Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Herniation

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture plus wheat-grain moxibustion in treating lumbar intervertebral disc herniation（LIDH）. Method Sixty LIDH patients were randomized into an observation group and a control group by the random number table, 30 in each group. The observation group was intervened by electroacupuncture plus wheat-grain moxibustion, and the control group was by electroacupuncture. The clinical efficacies, modified Japanese Orthopedic Association（M-JOA） scores, and short-form McGill pain questionnaire（SF-MPQ） scores were compared and analyzed. Result The total effective rate was 93.3% in the observation group, significantly different from that in the control group（P0.05）; the M-JOA scores increased significantly in both groups（P0.05）, the SF-MPQ scores dropped significantly in both groups（P0.05）, and the improvements in the observation group were more statistically significant（P0.05）. Conclusion Electroacupuncture plus wheat-grain moxibustion can produce better therapeutic efficacy than electroacupuncture alone in treating LIDH.
