报刺配合运动针法治疗肱骨外上髁炎疗效观察

Therapeutic Observation of Successive Trigger Needling plus Motorial Needling for External Humeral Epicondylitis

目的观察报刺法配合运动针法治疗肱骨外上髁炎的临床疗效。方法将符合纳入标准的62例肱骨外上髁炎患者随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组31例。治疗组采用报刺配合运动针法治疗,对照组采用常规针刺治疗。两组均每日治疗1次,治疗10次后观察两组治疗前后患肘疼痛VAS评分、ADL评分的变化情况,并比较两组临床疗效。结果两组治疗1、2星期后VAS评分及ADL评分与同组治疗前比较,差异均具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。治疗组治疗前后VAS评分及ADL评分差值与对照组比较,差异均具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。治疗组总有效率为96.8%,对照组为93.5%,两组比较差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论报刺配合运动针法是一种治疗肱骨外上髁炎的有效方法,能提高患者的日常生活活动能力。

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of successive trigger needling plus motorial needling in treating external humeral epicondylitis. Method Sixty-two eligible subjects with external humeral epicondylitis were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 31 cases each. The treatment group was intervened by successive trigger needling plus motorial needling, and the control group was treated with ordinary acupuncture. The two groups were both treated once a day. After 10 sessions of treatment, the changes of Visual Analogue Scale （VAS） and Activities of Daily Living （ADL） scores were observed, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups. Result The VAS and ADL scores were changed significantly respectively after 1-week and 2-week treatment in both groups （P〈0.05）. After the treatment, the changes of VAS and ADL scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group （P〈0.05）. The total effective rate was 96.8% in the treatment group versus 93.5% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant （P〈0.05）. Conclusion Successive trigger needling plus motorial needling is an effective approach in treating external humeral epicondylitis, and it can improve the ADL.
