目的:观察背俞穴治疗哮喘的疗效。方法:将61例患者分为背俞穴组、针灸组、针刺组,三组均每星期治疗2次,10次为1疗程,治疗3疗程后观察疗效。结果与结论:背俞穴组和针灸组控显率均高于常规针刺组(P<0.05),针灸组控显率略高于背俞穴组,但没有统计学意义。结果表明背俞穴治疗哮喘有较好的疗效。

Objective： To investigate the therapeutic effect of Back-Shu acupoint in treating asthma. Methods： Sixty-one patients were randomly divided into a Back-Shu acupoint group, a acupuncture-moxibustion group and a acupuncture group. All the three groups were treated twice a week, 10 times made up a treatment course. The therapeutic effect was evaluated after three courses of treatment. Results and conclusion： The control and marked effective rate were significantly higher in the Back-Shu acupoint group and acupuncture-moxibustion groups than in the acupuncture group （P〈0.05）. They were slightly higher in the acupuncture-moxibustion group than in the Back-Shu acupoint group, but there was no statistically significant difference. The results indicated that the Back-Shu acupoints have a good therapeutic effect in treating asthma.
