针灸联合脉冲电刺激治疗脊髓损伤后骨质疏松临床观察

Clinical Effect of Acupuncture Combined with Electric Pulse Stimulation in Treating Osteoporosis Patients after Spinal Cord Injury

目的:观察针灸联合脉冲电刺激治疗脊髓损伤后骨质疏松的临床疗效。方法:将脊髓损伤后骨质疏松患者78例按照随机数字表法分为2组,对照组34例,实验组44例。对照组行常规的康复治疗,实验组在常规治疗的基础上给予针灸治疗及脉冲电刺激治疗。治疗前及治疗3月后分别进行骨密度及骨代谢生化指标检测。结果:治疗后,实验组的骨密度、骨代谢生化指标以及对照组的血清骨钙素均较治疗前改善(P<0.05)。治疗后2组的骨密度、骨代谢生化指标比较,差异均有显著性意义(P<0.05)。结论:针灸联合脉冲电刺激治疗脊髓损伤后骨质疏松具有良好疗效。

Objective:To inves tigate the clinical effect of acupuncture combined with electric puls e s timulation in treating os teoporos is patients after s pinal cord injury. Methods: Seventy- eight patients diagnos ed as os teoporos is after s pinal cord injury in our hos pital were divided into two groups according to the random number table. The experiment group with 44 cas es were treated with acupuncture combined with electric puls e s timulation,and the control group with 34 cas es were treated with routine rehabilitation. All patients were followed up for 3 months. Bone mineral dens ity(BMD) and bone metabolis m biochemical indexes were analyzed before and after treatment. Results:BMD and bone metabolis m biochemical indexes in the experiment group as well as the s erum os teocalcin in the control group were improved after treatment as compared with thos e before treatment(P < 0.05). The difference of BMD and bone metabolis m biochemical indexes between the two groups were s ignificant after treatment(P < 0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture combined with electric puls e s timulation is effective in treating os teoporos is patients after s pinal cord injury.
