中西医结合疗法治疗膝关节骨关节炎的临床观察

Clinical Observation on Combined Traditional Chinese and Werstern Medicine Therapy of Knee Joint Osteoarthritis

对72例膝关节骨关节炎患者采用关节内冲洗加中药内服进行治疗。并与单纯关节内冲洗进行对照。经随访3个月～1年的统计结果表明,两组近期疗效无明显差异,但远期疗效中西医结台组显著高于单纯关节内冲洗组。其优良率分别为65.5%和37.5%。提示在采用关节内冲洗治疗该病的同时,加用某些具有清热解毒、消炎止痛的中药内服,能明显提高远期疗效,降低复发率。
