Clinical Observation On The Therapeutic Effect Of Treating Infrapatellar Fat Pad Of Cold-dampness With Intensive Warming Acupuncture Combined With Massage

Objective: It is to observe the effects of dense warm acupuncture combined with massage on infrapatellar fat pad injury of cold-dampness,range of motion(ROM),visual analogue score(VAS),and Lysholm knee score scale(LKSS)from patients with infrapatellar fat pad injury of cold-dampnes by means of a randomized controlled clinical research.Moreover,the clinical curative effect is observed in order to provide a treatment scheme for the infrapatellar fat pad injury of cold-dampne.Methods: This study included 68 patients who were treated in and admitted to the Rehabilitation Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Nanping People’s Hospital from January 1,2020 to January 31,2021 due to infrapatellar fat pad injury.They were divided into two groups by random choice method,with each group including 34 patients.The treatment group was treated with the intensive warming acupuncture combined with massage,while the control group was treated with the massage.Both groups were treated once a day for 2 courses of treatment,with each course including 6 times.The VAS,LKSS and ROM were measured by special personnel in the two groups that met the inclusion criteria before and after treatment.The data about the above three scales were collected before treatment and 2 weeks after treatment,respectively,for statistical analysis through SPSS 22.0software.Results: 1.The VAS scores of the two groups decreased after treatment,and the scores of the treatment group were lower than those of the control group,which indicated that the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).2.The LKSS scores of the two groups increased after treatment in all aspects and total scores,and the comprehensive scores of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group,which indicated that the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).3.The ROM values of the two groups increased after treatment,and the values of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group,which indicated that the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).4.Among the 68 patients in these two groups,After treatment,.Thus,the cure rate was41.18%,the improvement rate was 52.94%,and the overall response rate was 94.12%.By contrast,the cure rate was 26.47%,the improvement rate was 47.06%,and the overall response rate was 73.52%.The total markedly effective rates showed a statistical difference between the two groups(P<0.01).Conclusion: 1.Both the intensive warming acupuncture combined with massage and the massage were effective in the treatment of infrapatellar fat pad injury of cold-dampness.However,the former showed better curative effect and higher cure rate and markedly effective rate compared with the latter.2.In the treatment of infrapatellar fat pad injury of cold-dampness by the intensive warming acupuncture combined with massage,the ROM was improved,the LKSS scores were increased,and the VAS scores were reduced.This therapy was more effective in relieving the pain and improving the function.3.The intensive warming acupuncture combined with massage had a significant clinical effect in improving the clinical symptoms of patients with infrapatellar fat pad injury of cold-dampness.Thus,this therapy was worth popularizing.
