Objective:The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy differences of the three groups of treatments for cervical tinnitus.The first treatment option is abdominal acupuncture,acupuncture kinetotherapy and body acupuncture.The second treatment option is abdominal acupuncture combined with body acupuncture.The last set of treatment options is clinical routine acupuncture.At the same time,this study can also optimize the clinical treatment plan.The effectiveness and safety of the first treatment plan for cervical tinnitus are discussed in the article.It also provides theoretical and clinical basis for this therapy.Methods:60 patients with cervical tinnitus will be randomly divided into 3 groups with 20 patients in each group.Group A includes 20 patients who will receive abdominal acupuncture,acupuncture kinetotherapy and body acupuncture.Group B includes 20 patients who will receive abdominal acupuncture combined with body acupuncture.Group C includes 20 patients who will receive clinical routine acupuncture.By observing the changes in Tinnitus Handicap Inventory(THI),Tinnitus Evaluation Questionnaire(TEQ),Pure Tone Audiometry(NPQ)and Pure Tone Audiometry(PTA)before and after treatment and during follow-up,the efficacy and safety of the group treatment plan will be evaluated.Results:The baseline data of the three groups are evenly distributed and comparable.There was no significant difference in THI,TEQ,NPQ,PTA between the three groups before treatment(P>0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the effective rate of group A was 89.47%,that of group B was 60%,and that of group C was 47.37%.Compared with the curative effect of group B and group C,group A had statistical difference(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in curative effect between group B and group C(P>0.05).The improvement of THI,TEQ,NPQ,PTA after treatment in group A was better than that of group B and group C,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Compared with group C,the improvement of THI,TEQ,NPQ,PTA in group B was statistically significant(P<0.05).At the 8-week follow-up,the THI,TEQ and NPQ of group A were better than those of group B and C(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the improvement of THI between group B and group C during follow-up(P>0.05).The improvement of TEQ and NPQ in group B was better than that in group C during follow-up(P<0.05).All groups are safe.No serious adverse events occurred.Conclusion:The three groups of therapies can effectively treat cervical tinnitus.The efficacy of the first group is better than the other two groups,and can effectively improve the degree of hearing loss,tinnitus symptoms and neck pain symptoms. |
