目的:观察针刺配合盒灸治疗Hunt面瘫的临床疗效。方法:将48例患者随机分为2组各24例,对照组采用单纯针刺方法,治疗组在普通针刺基础上,在患侧耳部加用盒灸。观察临床疗效与镇痛时间。结果:2组周围性面瘫、带状疱疹治愈率分别比较,差异均有显著性意义(P<0.05),提示治疗组疗效优于对照组。镇痛起效时间治疗组明显短于对照组(P<0.01),疼痛缓解平均时间治疗组明显少于对照组(P<0.05),提示治疗组在镇痛方面优于对照组。结论:针刺加盒灸治疗Hunt面瘫疗效显著。

Objective: To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined with moxa-box moxibustion for Hunt facial paralysis. Methods: Forty-eight qualified patients were equally randomized into the treatment group and the control group. The two groups received acupuncture. Additionally,the treatment group was given moxa-box moxibustion on the aural region of the affected side. Therapeutic effect was evaluated and the time for relieving pain was counted after treatment. Results: The differences of cure rate for peripheral facial paralysis and herpes zoster were significant between the two groups ( P < 0. 05),indicating that the treatment group had better therapeutic effect. The onset time for pain relief was shorter in the treatment group than that in the control group ( P < 0. 01 ),so did the average time for the pain relief ( P < 0. 05 ),indicating that the treatment group had better analgesic effect. Conclusion: Acupuncture combined with moxa-box moxibustion exerts certain effect for the treatment of Hunt facial paralysis.
