Methods: A total of 100 cases of CFS patients were evenly randomized into treatment group and control group which were treated with elongated needle puncture of ST 36 and CV 6 plus nursing and oral ackninistration of Shiquan Dobu Tong (十全大补汤 Decoction of Ten Powerful Tonics) separately. Acupuncture and medication were given once daily, with 7 sessions being a therapeutic course, 4 courses altogether. Results: After 4 courses of treatment, of the two 50 cases in treatment and control groups, 4 (8.0%) and 2 (4.0%) were cured, 37 (74.0%) and 16 (32.0%) experienced marked im- provernent, 6 ( 12.0 % ) and 19 (38.0 % ) had improvement, 3 (6.0 % ) and 13 (26.0 % ) tailed, with the total effective rates being 94.0% (47/50) and 74.0% (37/50) respectively. The total effective rate and markedly effective rate of treatment group were significantly higher than those of control group (P〈0.05, 0.01). Conclusion; Deep puncture of Zusenli (ST 36) and Qihai (CV 6) with elongated needle combined with comprehensive nursing has a definite therapeutic effect in the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome.展开更多
