Knee joint pain treated with scraping combined with collateral bloodletting therapy

刮痧结合刺络拔罐治疗膝关节疼痛30例临床疗效观察（英文）

Objective： To observe the clinical efficacy of knee joint pain treated with scraping combined with collateral bloodletting therapy in comparison with the routine acupuncture techniques.Methods： From March 2017 through to September 2017, 60 outpatients of knee joint pain were collected from the Acupuncture-Moxibustion Department. They were randomly divided into the group A（treated with scraping combined with collateral bloodletting therapy） and the group B（treated with the simple needling therapy of acupuncture）, 30 cases in each one. Once treatment was given every day and10 times consist of one course, two courses of treatment were required. At the end of treatment, the visual analogue scale（VAS） was adopted to evaluate the pain index, tenderness index and the overall effect of the patients in the two groups. Based on the Lysholm knee scale, the scores were compared in the patients of the two groups before and after treatment.Results： The total effective rate was 96.7% in the group A and was 86.7% in the group B, indicating the significant difference（P〈0.05）. VAS value was 3.03 ± 0.62 in the group A and was 3.67 ± 0.74 in the group B after treatment, indicating that difference is statistically significant（P〈0.05）. The Lysholm knee score was 89.2 ± 4.8 in the group A and was 82.4 ± 2.6 in the group B after treatment, indicating that difference is statistically significant（P〈0.05）.Conclusion： The scraping combined with collateral bloodletting therapy is significant in the efficacy on knee joint pain and feasible in the clinical guidance.

目的:通过与常规针刺手法比较,观察刮痧结合刺络拔罐治疗膝关节疼痛的临床疗效。方法:针灸门诊膝关节疼痛患者共60例,随机分为A组(刮痧结合刺络拔罐)和B组(单纯针刺),每组30例,每日一次,10次一疗程,共治疗2个疗程。治疗结束后采用视觉模拟评分法(VAS)评定2组患者的疼痛指数以及压痛指数和总体疗效,根据Lysholm膝关节评分标准对两组患者治疗前后进行评分并比较。结果:A组总有效率96.7%, B组总有效率86.7%,两组差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);治疗后A组VAS值3.03±0.62,B组3.67±0.74,两组差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。治疗后A组Lysholm膝关节评分为89.2±4.8, B组为82.4±2.6,两组差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:刮痧结合刺络拔罐治疗膝关节疼痛疗效优于常规单纯针刺,具有一定的临床指导意义。
