| Objective: The main objective of this study is to investigate the clinical effects of back tui na therapy for CFS and to develop a standardized operational protocol.This paper preliminarily explores the mechanism of back tuina therapy in treating CFS(spleen-kidney Yang deficiency type),and provides new ideas and methods for the treatment of CFS.Methods: A total of 72 patients were recruited from the Prevention and Treatment Center and pulmonary Clinic of the Third Clinical Hospital Affiliated to Changchun University of Chinese Medicine,all of whom met the diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome,spleen-kidney Yang deficiency type and syndromes inclusion criteria.According to the random number table method,the patients were equally divided into two groups.The treatment group was treated with back massage method,and the control group was treated with oral Chinese patent medicine Fu Zi Li Zhong Pill alloy Jin Gui Shen Qi Pill,7 days as a course of treatment.After three sessions of treatment,clinical data were analyzed according to the changes in the quantitative score scale of the TCM symptoms of spleen-kidney Yang deficiency,the fatigue scale(FS-14)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)in the two groups,to make inter-group and intra-group comparisons,to evaluate the clinical significance of back massage in treating chronic fatigue syndrome with spleen-kidney Yang deficiency.Results: In this study,69 valid complete cases were collected,including 35 cases in the treatment group and 34 cases in the control group.Before treatment,patients in both groups were identical at baseline,sex,age,course of disease,quantitative accumulation table of TCM spleen-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome,FS-14 and SOD index were comparable(P>0.05).After three courses of treatment,TCM spleen-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome quantitative score table: the total score of spleen-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome in both groups decreased significantly,and the treatment group improved more significantly(P<0.05).The total effective rate was 91.42% in the treatment group and 73.52% in the control group;Fatigue scale(FS-14): fatigue was improved in all patients,and the improvement degree of physical fatigue and total fatigue score in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05);Superoxide dismutase(SOD): The index of superoxide dismutase increased more significantly in back massage group(P<0.05).Conclusion: In the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome,back acupressure and the oral Chinese medicine,Fu Zi Li Zhong Pill and Jin Gui Shen Qi Pill,are effective,but on the whole,back acupressure has more obvious advantages and more significant therapeutic effects,and is better than the oral Chinese medicine in improving patients’ fatigue and quality of life,so it is worth promoting clinically. |
