The Observation On The "Wen Yang Tiao Qi Method" Using Acupuncture Treat Cervical Spondylotic Radiculopathy With Syndrome Of Wind-cold Obstructing Collaterals

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy on the “wen yang tiao qi method”using acupuncture treat cervical spondylotic radiculopathy with syndrome of wind-cold obstructing collaterals.Methods: Choose the criteria of 70 patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy with syndrome of wind-cold obstructing collaterals into standard,using SPSS17.0 statistical software randomly divided into treatment group and control group,35 cases each group.The treatment group was treated with acupuncture for acupoint EX-HN15,BL10,GB21,LI4,LR3(both sides above above),GV20 and GV14,combined with acupoint EX-HN15,BL10,GB21(both sides above above),and GV14 granule moxibustion treatment.The control group was treated with acupuncture for BL10,SI13,BL12,GV16,cervical EX-B2(both sides above above),and GV14,combined with spine electro-acupuncture treatment.The two groups cure once every other day,about 30 min every time,as 2 weeks for a course,after one course the patients rest for 2 days,2 courses in all.Compared before treatment with the first course,the second course treatment of two groups in raditional chinese medical syndrome scores,Tian zhong jing jiu symptoms scale score and VAS pain score,and evaluated the clinical effect of the two groups patients before and after.Statistical software SPSS17.0 was used to analyze the collected data.Results: 1.Both groups before compared to the first course,the second course after treatment,the Tian zhong jing jiu symptoms scales cores significantly increased(P<0.05),traditional chinese medical syndrome scores and the VAS pain scores significantly reduced(P<0.05).It indicated both groups improve the traditional chinese medical syndrome,pain condition,symptoms and signs of the patients.2.Both groups first course compared to the second course after treatment,the Tian zhong jing jiu symptoms scale scores significantly increased,traditional chinese medical syndrome scores and the VAS pain scores significantly reduced,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).It indicated the longer course,the effect was more significant.3.Comparison between the two groups after the first course of treatment,the Tian zhong jing jiu symptoms scale scores,traditional chinese medical syndrome scores and VAS pain scores were nonsignificant statistically(P>0.05).It indicated that both groups had same clinical effect after the first course treatment.4.Comparison between the two groups after the second course of treatment,the Tian zhong jing jiu symptoms scale scores of treatment group was higher than control group(P<0.05).The traditional chinese medical syndrome scores and VAS pain scores of treatment group were significantly lower than control group(P<0.05).It indicated that the longer treatment,the treatment group was better than control group.5.Comparison of clinical efficacy between the two groups,the total effect rate in the treatment group was 97.14%,the control group was 82.85%,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).It indicated the clinical effect of the treatment group better than the control group.Conclusion: acupuncture combine with granule moxibustion of “wen yang tiao qi method” and spine electro-acupuncture treatment could improve the traditional chinese medical syndrome,symptoms,signs and pain of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy with syndrome of wind-cold obstructing collaterals for the the first and second course.Both groups had same clinical effect after the first course treatment.But after the second course treatment,the treatment group better than the control group.The longer treatment,the treatment group have more prominent advantage.And the treatment group can obviously improve clinical effect.
