超短波结合电针及中药外洗治疗退行性膝关节炎疗效观察

Clinical observation on treating degenerative knee osteoarthritis by ultrashort wave plus electro acupuncture and TCM medicine wash

目的:观察超短波结合电针及中药外洗治疗退行性膝关节炎的临床疗效。方法:选取2013年8月-2015年8月我院收治的接受退行性膝关节炎治疗的患者86例,随机分为观察组43例和对照组43例,观察组给予超短波结合电针及中药外洗治疗,对照组患者给予电针治疗。两组均在治疗前后观察整体疗效、VAS评分,并随访1个月和2个月。结果:观察组患者总有效率明显高于对照组(93.0%VS76.7%),差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。两组治疗前后VAS评分、治疗后随访1个月、随访2个月两组患者VAS评分,观察组均优于对照组,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:运用超短波结合电针及中药外洗治疗退行性膝关节炎,疗效优于针刺组,值得临床推广。

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of ultrashort wave combined with electro acupuncture and TCM medicine wash on degenerative knee osteoarthritis.Methods:86patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,with43cases in each group,the observation group received ultrashort wave combined with electro acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine wash while the the control group received electro acupuncture treatment.The overall efficiency,VAS score of both groups before and after treatment were observed and both group were followed up for1month and2months.Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group(93.0%VS76.7%),the difference was of statistical significance(P<0.05).The overall efficiency,VAS score of the observation group in1month and2months follow-up was significantly better than that of the control group,(P<0.05).Conclusion:Ultrashort wave combined with electro acupuncture and TCM medicine wash had significant effect on degenerative knee osteoarthritis,which was worthy of clinical promotion.
