Methods The 88 outpatients of CSA were divided with single-blind method into Treatment Group （treated by laser needle-knife and acupuncture） with 48 patients in it and Control Group （treated by Intravenous drip of Compound Salvia Miltiorrhiza Injection and oral taking of Flunarizine （Sibelium） with 40 patients in it. Before the treatment, the two groups were without difference statistically. Results In the treatment group, the curative rate was 60.42% and the total effective rate 97.92%. In the control group, the curative rate was 30% and the total effective rate 87.5%. In statistics, P〈0.05, a significant difference existed between the two groups. Conclusion The effect of laser needleknife and acupuncture for CSA is obviously better than that of medication, worth spreading.展开更多

METHODS： Retrograde terminal ileoscopy was attempted in 200 consecutive patients undergoing colonoscopy. After intubation of the cecum and visualization of the ileocecal valve, butyl bromide injection or normal saline was given intravenously to the patients in a double blind random fashion. The pulse rate and oxygen saturation were measured continuously. After completion of the procedure, endoscopists were then asked to score the ease of intubation and the ease of visualization of the terminal ileum on a visual scale of 1 to 10. The patients were also asked to score the pain after receiving hyoscine butyl bromide injection on a score of 1 to 10. RESULTS： Terminal ileoscopy could be performed in 188 patients. The mean （SD） visual analogue score for the ease of intubation of the cecum was 7.4 （0.65） in the injection group and 5.9 （0.8） in the placebo group （P 〈 0.001）. The mean （SD） length of ileum visualized in the injection group was 14.4 （3.3） cm and 10.4 （2.7） cm in the placebo group （P 〈 0.001）. The mean （SD） visual analogue score for ease of visualization of the terminal ileum was 7.5 （0.69） in the injection group and 5.9 （0.7） in the placebo group （P 〈 0.001）. The pain score experienced by the patients was 6.5 （0.7） in the injection group and 6.7 （0.69） in the placebo group （P 〈 0.008）. Although the pulse rate increased significantly in patients receiving the drug, no statistically significant difference was noted in the oxygen saturation between the two groups either before or after administration of the drug. No complications were observed in either of the groups. CONCLUSION： Hyoscine butyl bromide injection is a useful adjunct in helping the intubation and visualization of terminal ileum during colonoscopy.展开更多
