针刺治疗功能性消化不良临床疗效观察

Therapeutic Observation of Acupuncture in Treating Functional Dyspepsia

目的观察针刺治疗功能性消化不良的临床疗效。方法将80例功能性消化不良患者随机分为治疗组、对照组,每组40例。治疗组用针刺足阳明胃经特定穴治疗,对照组口服伊托必利,分别对两组治疗前后进行症状评分及疗效评价。结果两组患者治疗前症状评分比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);两组治疗后症状评分较治疗前均明显下降(P<0.01);治疗组治疗后症状评分与对照组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。治疗组总有效率为97.5%,对照组总有效率为67.5%,两组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),针刺治疗功能性消化不良总有效率明显优于药物治疗。结论针刺足阳明胃经特定穴能明显降低功能性消化不良患者症状评分,改善临床症状,提高总有效率。

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture in treating functional dyspepsia （FD）.Method Eighty FD patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 40 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by needling the specific points of the Stomach Meridian, while the control group was by Itopride hydrochloride tablets. The symptoms score and therapeutic efficacy were evaluated in the two groups.Result There was no significant difference in comparing the symptom score between the two groups before intervention （P〉0.05）; the symptoms score dropped significantly in both groups after intervention （P〈0.01）; the difference in comparing the symptoms score between the two groups was statistically significant after intervention （P〈0.05）. The total effective rate was 97.5% in the treatment group versus 67.5% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant （P〈0.05）, indicating that the total effective rate of acupuncture is higher than that of medication in treating FD.Conclusion Acupuncture at the specific points of the Stomach Meridian can obviously reduce FD symptom score, improve symptoms and enhance the total effective rate.
