目的:观察针刺配合中药熏洗治疗退行性膝关节炎的临床疗效。方法:将60例退行性膝关节炎患者随机分为观察组、对照组各30例。观察组采用针刺配合中药熏洗治疗,对照组常规膝关节腔内注射玻璃酸钠治疗。2组均以治疗4周为1个疗程,治疗1个疗程后观察疗效。结果:痊愈率观察组为60.00%,对照组为30.00%,2组相比差异显著(P<0.05);总有效率观察组为93.33%,对照组为80.00%,2组相比差异显著(P<0.05)。疼痛缓解时间观察组平均(8.25±1.36)天,对照组平均(15.35±2.55)天,2组相比差异显著(P<0.05)。结论:针刺配合中药熏洗治疗退行性膝关节炎临床疗效显著,可快速缓解临床症状。

Objective：To explore clinical effects of needling and TCM fumigation in treating degenerative os-teoarthritis. Method：Sixty patients were divided to the observation group and the control group equally. The obser-vation group received needling and TCM fumigation and the control group injecting sodium hyaluronate into articu-lar cavity. Four weeks were one course of treatment, clinical effects were observed after treating one course of treat-ment. Result：Cure rate of the observation group was 60.00%, higher than 30.00%of the control group with signifi-cant difference （P〈0.05）;total effective rates of both groups were 93.33%and 80.00%, the difference was notable （P〈0.05）. Average relieving time of pain in the observation group was （8.25±1.36） days, shorter than （15.35±2.55） days of the control group, the difference between both groups were remarkable （P〈0.05）. Conclusion：Needling and TCM fumigation are effective in treating degenerative osteoarthritis and rapidly relieve clinical symptoms.
