Comparison of therapeutic effects of fire-needle therapy and filiform-needle therapy for injury of knee joint collateral ligaments

目的 :比较不同刺法对膝关节侧副韧带部分损伤的治疗效果。方法 :将 6 8例膝关节侧副韧带部分损伤患者随机分为火针组 32例、毫针组 36例 ,分别采用火针和毫针刺激膝部压痛点 ,进行疗效对比。结果 :火针组总有效率为 10 0 0 % ,毫针组为 86 0 %。经 χ2 检验 ,两组总有效率差异有非常显著性意义 (P <0 0 0 5 )。结论

Objective To compare therapeutic effects of different needling methods on partial injury of knee joint collateral ligaments. Methods Sixty-eight cases of partial injury of knee joint collateral ligaments were randomly divided into a fire-needle group (n=32) and a filiform-needle group (n=36). They were treated by fire-needle and filiform needle stimulating tenderness on the knee respectively, and their therapeutic effects were compared. Results The total effective rate was 100.0% in the fire-needle group and 86.0% in the filiform-needle group with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.005). Conclusion The therapeutic effect of fire-needle therapy on injury of knee joint collateral ligaments is obviously superior to that in the filiform-needle therapy.
