内热针临床应用现状与中医指导理论探析

Analysis of clinical application of internal thermal needle and guiding theory of traditional Chinese medicine

内热针是一种将电热丝置于针体内,通过交流电加热,达到使刺入治疗部位的针体升温并对温度可控的一种新型治疗仪器,其治疗作用兼具针刺和温针的功效。近年来,内热针在临床应用中已经取得了较为满意的疗效,但其应用领域及其指导理论方面尚有所局限。本文拟通过对内热针临床应用情况进行综述,对其指导理论与临床适用病症选择方面进行总结分析,发现该疗法目前应用的局限所在,并结合传统中医辨证诊治原则及经络学说,探求内热针疗法在指导理论及应用领域方面的拓展,以期抛砖引玉为临床学者更好地运用内热针提供新思路。
