腕踝针治疗肱骨外上髁炎25例临床观察

Clinical Observation of Wrist-ankle Acupuncture in the Treatment of 25 Patients with External Humeral Epicondylitis

目的:观察腕踝针埋针治疗肱骨外上髁炎的临床疗效。方法:随机选取50例符合研究标准的肱骨外上髁炎患者,使用随机数字法将患者随机分为对照组及观察组,每组各25例。对照组采用口服塞来昔布联合外贴双氯芬酸钠贴;观察组采用腕踝针埋针法;比较两组治疗前及2周后VAS、Mayo肘关节功能评分差异。结果:两组治疗前VAS、Mayo评分无统计学意义(P>0.05);两组治疗后的VAS评分降低,观察组优于对照组(P<0.05);Mayo肘关节功能评分治疗后提高,观察组优于对照组(P<0.05)。结论:应用腕踝针埋针治疗肱骨外上髁炎有效,且疗效优于口服塞来昔布及关节局部止痛贴治疗。

Objective To observe the clinical effect of Wrist-ankle acupuncture by imbedding in the treatment of external humeral epicondylitis.Methods 50 patients with external humeral epicondylitis who met the research criteria were randomly selected.The patients were randomly divided into the control group and observation group by the random number method,with 25 cases in each group.The control group received oral celecoxib,external application of diclofenac sodium for analgesia;The observation group,Wrist-ankle acupuncture imbedding method was used.VAS and Mayo elbow function score were compared between the two groups before and 2 weeks after treatment.Results VAS and Mayo score before treatment,was not statistically significant between the two groups(P>0.05).VAS scores of the two groups were reduced after treatment,and the observation group was better than the control group(P<0.05).The Mayo elbow joint function score after treatment was improved,and the observation group was better than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Wrist-ankle acupuncture by imbedding in the treatment of external humeral epicondylitis was effective,and better than oral celecoxib with external application of diclofenac sodium for analgesia.
