中医筋骨针疗法结合桂枝葛根汤治疗神经根型颈椎病临床观察

Clinical Observation on Physique Needle Combined with Guizhi Gegen Decoction in the Treatment of Cervical Spondylotic Radiculopathy

目的探究中医筋骨针疗法结合桂枝葛根汤治疗神经根型颈椎病的临床效果。方法将300例神经根型颈椎病患者随机分为试验组和对照组,每组150例。其中对照组的患者采用常规针刺治疗,试验组患者则采用中医筋骨针疗法结合桂枝葛根汤治疗。分析比较2组患者的治疗效果、疼痛程度改善情况,不良症状发生率以及临床症状消失时间与颈椎恢复时间。结果试验组患者的治疗总有效率(97.33%)高于对照组患者的治疗总有效率(85.33%)(P<0.05);2组VAS评分均改善,且试验组优于对照组(P<0.05);试验组不良情况发生率低于对照组(P<0.05);试验组临床症状消失时间与颈椎恢复时间都早于对照组(P<0.05)。结论吴汉卿教授所创新发明的中医筋骨针疗法结合桂枝葛根汤临床治疗神经根型颈椎病方面具有确切疗效,不仅能够缓解患者的疼痛,还能降低不良症状的发生率,值得推广应用。

Objective To explore the clinical effect of physique needle combined with Guizhi Gegen decoction in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.Methods Three hundred patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,with 150 cases in each group.Patients in the control group were treated with conventional acupuncture,and patients in the experimental group were treated with physique needle combined with Guizhi Gegen decoction.The therapeutic effect,improvement of pain degree and incidence of adverse symptoms were analyzed and compared between the two groups.As well as clinical symptoms disappear time and cervical vertebra recovery time.Results The total effective rate of the experimental group(97.33%)was higher than that of the control group(85.33%)(P<0.05).The VAS scores of the two groups were improved,and the experimental group was better than the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse events of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).The disappearance time of clinical symptoms and recovery time of cervical vertebra in theexperimental group were earlier than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Professor Wu Hanqing’s innovative traditional Chinese medicine physique needle has a definite effect in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy,which can not only relieve the pain of patients,but also reduce the incidence of adverse symptoms,and it is worthy of popularization and application.
