皮下针疗法治疗面肌痉挛疗效观察(英文)

Therapeutic observation of superficial needling for hemifacial spasm

目的:观察皮下针疗法治疗面肌痉挛的疗效。方法:选择面肌痉挛患者80例,按随机数字表随机分为两组,每组40例。观察组予以皮下针刺局部阿是穴及腕踝针上1、上2和上3穴治疗,对照组使用常规针刺法。两组均每日1次,7次为一个疗程,治疗2个疗程后观察疗效。结果:观察组总有效率和痊愈率分别为97.5%和57.5%,对照组分别为85.0%和37.5%,两组痊愈率及总有效率差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:皮下针治疗面肌痉挛疗效优于常规针刺。

Objective： To observe the therapeutic efficacy of superficial needling in treating hemifacial spasm. Methods： Eighty patients with facial spasm were randomized into two groups by the random number table, 40 cases in each group. The observation group was intervened by superficial needling at local Ashi points and wrist-ankle acupuncture at the Upper 1, Upper 2 and Upper 3 points; while the control group was by ordinary acupuncture. For both groups, the treatment was given once a day, 7 times as a treatment course, and the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after 3 courses. Results： The total effective rate and recovery rate were respectively 97.5% and 57.5% in the observation group versus 85.0% and 37.5% in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Superficial needling can produce a more significant efficacy in treating hemifacial spasm than ordinary acupuncture.
