Clinical Observations on Electroacupuncture Treatment of Hip Osteoarthritis

目的 观察电针治疗髋关节骨关节炎的疗效。方法 12 0例髋关节骨关节炎患者随机分成两组 ,每组各 6 0例 ,分别采用电针治疗和口服扶他林缓释片治疗。观察两组患者治疗前后的疼痛、活动度、肿胀程度 ,随访 2年以上。以 JOA髋关节骨关节炎的疗效评定标准进行疗效评定。结果 治疗后电针治疗组患者的平均总分上升了 18分 ,而口服扶他林缓释片组患者上升了 12 .33分 (P<0 .0 5 )。结论 电针治疗髋关节骨关节炎的疗效明显优于口服扶他林缓释片。

Purpose To investigate the curative effect of electroacupuncture on hip osteoarthritis.Method One hundred and twenty patients with hip osteoarthritis were randomly divided into two groups, 60 cases each, and treated by electroacupuncture and oral administration of slow-released diclofenac tablet, respectively. The degrees of pain, activity and swelling were observed in both groups before and after treatment. A follow-up was performed for more than 2 years. The curative effects were assessed by JOA criteria for evaluating the effect on hip osteoarthritis.Results After treatment, the average score increased by 18 marks in the electroacupuncture group and by 12.33 marks in the diclofenac group (P<0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture treatment has a significantly better effect on hip osteoarthritis than oral administration of slow-released diclofenac tablet.
