针刺配合隔姜灸治疗更年期综合征临床疗效分析

Clinical Analysis on Combined Acupuncture and Ginger-partitioned Moxibustion for Perimenopause Syndrome

目的观察针刺配合隔姜灸治疗更年期综合征临床疗效。方法将40例患者随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组20例。治疗组采用针刺配合隔姜灸治疗,对照组采用针刺治疗,治疗前后采用国内改良的Kupperman评分标准进行评定,并进行比较。结果治疗组总有效率高于对照组(P<0.05);两组患者治疗后Kupperman指数与治疗前比较有明显下降(P<0.01);治疗组治疗后患者Kupperman指数与对照组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论针刺配合隔姜灸治疗更年期综合征总有效率优于单纯针刺;在改善潮热汗出、失眠、抑郁、肌肉骨关节痛等方面优于单纯针刺。

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of combined acupuncture and ginger-partitioned moxibustion in treating perimenopause syndrome.Methods Forty patients were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,20 in each.The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture and ginger-partitioned moxibustion,and the control was treated by acupuncture.The Kupperman Menopausal Index（KMI） was employed in evaluation before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control（P0.05）;the KMI score dropped markedly in both groups after treatment（P0.01）;after treatment,the KMI score in the treatment group was significantly different from that in the control（P0.01）.Conclusion In treating perimenopause syndrome,combined acupuncture and ginger-partitioned moxibustion is superior to single acupuncture in comparison of the total effective rate,as well as in improving symptoms such as hot flushes,insomnia,depression,muscular and joint pain,etc.
