Clinical Observation Of Blood-letting Puncture Combined With Electroacupuncture On Lumbar Disc Herniation

Objective:To assess therapeutic effect on blood-letting puncture combined with electroacupuncture for the Treatment of Spasticity for lumbar disc herniation patientsMethods:A total of 60 patients were diagnosed with lumbar disch herniation according to the diagnostic standards stated in Nation's Diagnostic Standards, in combination with the patients' medical history, clinical symptoms and medical images. They underwent group-stratified randomization, which broke them down into treatment and controlled group. The treatment group which totaled 30 patients were treated on acupuncture with bleeding. The controlled group, which also totaled 30 patiens,were treated equally but only on acupunture. The two groups had treatment once every other day. A period of treatment was Six times and both treated two periods..During the course of treatment, the patients' clinical symptoms and change in range of motion were observed. According to the Nation's Diagnostic Standards, a patient is clinically recovered when the pain disappears, the straight leg raising (SLR) test scores more than 70 and normal range of motion is resumed. The treatment is effective when the pain is reduced and the range of twisting motion is improved, and it is said to be ineffective when clinical symptoms has no improvement at all. The JOA Pain Questionnaire was used in this study to assess quantitative measures of clinical pain before and after acupuncture treatment.Results:After two courses of treatment, (l)The total effect of two groups was both improved. The difference between two groups was no significant. (P>0. 05) The treatment groups had a total effective rate of 60% and a improved rate of86. 7% , and surpassed the controlled group. (2)The scores of the JOA Pain Questionnaire's each item of index were very significant between two groups. (P<0. 01) (3)The scores of VAPS of the two groups were no significant.Conclusion:1. The two treat groups also can alleviate the total effect of lumbar disc herniation patients,but healing rate and improvement rate of the treatment group surpass the controlled group.2. The two treat groups also can alleviate the pain of lumbar disc herniation patients, but the treatment group surpass the controlled group.
