ESWT On The Efficacy Of Knee Osteoarthritis Recen Observations

Objective:For this project to collect relevant clinical data, analysis of ESWT for treatment of knee OA patients, statistical ESWT before and after treatment of knee OA patients WOMAC score. Chang platinum set reference feature evaluation criteria, ESW treatment of knee OA patients obtained an excellent rate. For the ESWT treatment of knee osteoarthritis to seek treatment of osteoarthritis of the best available data.Methods:Subjects selected in September 2010 ~ March 2011 during the hospital for my regular ESW treatment of knee osteoarthritis patients. Before treatment, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria have been developed to select patients, the WOMAC score, WOMAC score in accordance with the standard sub-light in weight categories. The law of a certain course of ESW treatment:X-line impact of the patient positioning, set the ESW energy parameters, into the ESWT treatment to patients, according to the patient's symptoms set courses, guiding the patient's function during intermittent exercise. After treatment, WOMAC score again and reference the function of guangbo Zhang evaluation criteria developed to calculate the fine rate of patients. Data collection, depicting the distribution curve, were analyzed. Statistical analysis using SPSS13.0 package, test results indicated that with x±s, paired t test statistical test.Result:Rules for treatment of patients after completion of therapy, WOMAC score decreased compared with before treatment was significantly different (P<0.05). guangbo Zhang reference function of evaluation criteria developed to calculate effective patient care. The treatment of mild to moderate patients was remarkably moderate to severe patients achieved remission of acute symptoms can result.Conclusions:ESWT on various types of knee OA treatment is effective for mild to moderate knee OA patients with good curative effect on severe knee OA patients can relieve symptoms or delay the time of joint replacement.
