针刺治疗单纯性失眠临床观察

Clinical Observations on Acupuncture Treatment for Simple Insomnia

目的观察循环针法治疗单纯性失眠的临床疗效。方法 60例单纯性失眠患者随机分成针刺组(循环针法)与药物组,治疗1个月后评定临床疗效,治疗前后进行匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)评定,并于1个月、3个月后统计复发率。结果针刺组疗效优于药物组(P<0.05);针刺组治疗后患者睡眠质量、入睡时间、睡眠时间、睡眠效率、睡眠障碍及日间功能及总分都有显著改善(P<0.01);两组随访1个月、3个月复发率比较差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论循环针法治疗单纯性失眠具有显著疗效。

Sleep quality, time to fall asleep, sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep disorder, daytime dysfunction and the total score all improved significantly in the acupuncture group （P〈0.01）. There were no statistically significant differences in one-month and three-month follow-up recurrence rates between the two groups （P〉O.05）.
