温针环跳穴加拔罐治疗顽固性腓肠肌痉挛疗效观察

Clinical observation on the treatment for intractable systremma by warming needling combined with cupping

目的:探寻治疗顽固性慢性腓肠肌痉挛的较佳方法。方法:将150例患者随机分为观察组(100例)和对照组(50例)。两组均采用温针环跳穴加拔罐的综合治疗方法,观察组要求一定要从环跳穴刺中坐骨神经;对照组则浅刺环跳并刻意不刺中坐骨神经。观察两组治疗结束后6个月的疗效。结果:观察组有效率为98.0%,优于对照组的86.0%,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:温针环跳刺中坐骨神经加拔罐是治疗顽固性腓肠肌痉挛的有效方法,其疗效优于针刺环跳穴但不刺中坐骨神经。

Objective To explore the relatively efficacious acupuncture treatment for intractable systremma. Methods One hundred and fifty cases were randomly divided into an observation group （n= 100） and a control group （n= 50）. Both groups were received the warming needling treatment combined with cupping. The needle was inserted on to sciatic nerve at Huantiao （GB 30） in the observation group, but in the control group, the needle was not needled on sciatic nerve. The effectiveness of the warming needling treatment combined with cupping was compared between the two groups. Results The effective rate of 98.0% in the observation group was better than that of 86.0% in the control group with a significant difference （P〈0. 05）. Conclusion The warming needling treatment combined with cupping at Huantiao （GB 30） is a better method for intractable systremma, in which the treatment of needle inserted on to sciatic nerve is more effective.
