Methods Three hundred and sixty-six cases of bronchial asthma were randomly divided into treatment group (n = 185) and control group (n = 181 ). Patients of treatment group were treated with FIRARP and those of control group treated with external application of traditional "Sonfu (Dog-days) moxibustion" (herbal-paste-cake separated moxibustion) and acupoints used were Dazhui(大椎 GV14), Feishu(肺俞BL13), Tiantu (天突 CV22), etc. which were given to the patients. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) of the pulmonary function were determined and the changes of main symptoms and signs were observed before and after the treatment. Results The pulmonary functions were effectively improved, the symptoms were controlled, and the asthma attack was reduced in the two groups with no significant difference between the two groups (P 〉0.05). Conclusion There is no significant difference between Yuanhongwai Xiaochuonkong Plaster and traditional "Sanfu moxibustion" on bronchial asthma. It may substitute for traditional "Sonfu moxibustion".展开更多

The results revealed that topical application of drug paste [mixture of powder of Mahuang (Herba Ephedrae), Xixin (Herba Asari), Baijiezi (Semen Sinapis Albae), etc.] at the acupuncture points could improve symptoms and signs of allergic asthma patients, with the total effective rate being 69.57% (16/23) for the short term effect, and 52.17%(12/23) for the long term effect. In medication (Aminophylline) group, of the 25 cases of allergic asthma, 16 (64.0%) were effective after 4 weeks of treatment, while 6 (24.0%) were still effective that was shown by 6 months’ follow up. The therapeutic effect of acupoint application group was significantly better than that of medication group in the long term effect. Results also showed that no obvious interrelation between the short term therapeutic effect and the duration or the severity of the disease. Results also display that acupoint application therapy is an effective, safe and handy method with fewer side effects for asthma.展开更多

Bilateral Zusanli (ST 36) are used for acupoint injection of mixture solution of placenta tissue injectio (2 mL), Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinesis) injectio (2 mL) and Huangqi (Radix Astragli seu Hedysari) injectio (4 mL), with 4 mL for each acupoint. Acupoints used for puncturing are bilateral Yuji (LU 10), Dingchuan (EX-B 1), Feishu (BL 13), Fengmen (BL 12), Gaohuangshu (BL 43), Taiyuan (LU 9), Fenglong (ST 40), Shenshu (BL 23), Zusanli (ST 36), etc.. Dazhui (GV 14), Tanzhong (CV 17), and Zhongwan (CV 12) are moxibustioned after insertion of acupuncture needles and achieving needling sensations. Cupping is applied to bilateral Dingchuan (EX-B 1) after removing acupuncture needles with a little blood out. Following 3 days’ treatment, these 5 asthma patients who have no apparent response to conventional medication treatment are relieved strikingly in the attack frequency, till the 7th day of the treatment, they have no any asthmatic onset again. One month’s follow-up shows no recurrence. Results indicate that acupuncture with moxibustion and cupping is fairly effective in relieving steriod resistant asthma patients who have no effect in responding to glucocorticoid treatment.展开更多
