Clinical Research Of Muscle Relaxation Treatment For Cervical Vertigo

BackgroundDizziness in patients aged over 50, about 50% of vertigo, stubborn and easily repeated the disease. Cervical vertigo refers to the cervical spine and related soft tissue (joint capsule, ligaments, nerves, blood vessels, muscles, etc.) occurring organic or functional changes caused by vertigo. Mainly as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, chest tightness, palpitations, blurred vision, tinnitus and deafness, or cataplexy, often due to head rotation or lateral bending to a certain position, induced or exacerbated by, for chronic persistent, but also Showed onset of intense vertigo. At present, the disease risks and effects of surgery can not be sure, mainly on conservative therapy.ObjectiveBy prospective, randomized, controlled clinical observation, to inves-tigate the muscle relaxation treatment for treating cervical vertigo.MethodsThe case is 2010.1-2010.12 to Chinese Medicine Hospital of Shantou City, orthopedic clinics and ward treatment of cervical vertigo patients, chosen for selected cases of 120 patients were randomly divided into chronological order according to treatment group and control group 60 cases, all patients were using the "cervical vertigo symptoms and functional assessment scale"self-assessment of symptom scores, transcranial Doppler (TCD) detection (to the left and right vertebral artery and basilar artery mean blood flow as a reference index) And X-ray inspection (to measure the cervical lordosis as a reference index). Were recorded twice,1st time for the start of treatment, 2 times for after treatment. The results will enter the computer, a database, application SPSS11.5 statistical software for statistical analysis.ResultThe two groups before treatment vertigo score values, X ray of cervical lordosis and vertebral-basilar artery blood flow changes in homogeneity of variance test:P> 0.05, homogeneity of variance between the two groups, indicating that the two groups were comparable. With vertigo score value as the efficacy of assessment, adjusted means of muscle relaxant effect of treatment of cervical vertigo significant improvement of symptoms in the same time, the cervical physiological curvature correction to varying degrees, vertebral-basilar artery blood flow also improved significantly, compared to Western medicine treatment, dizziness score value, X ray of cervical lordosis and vertebral-basilar artery blood flow changes were statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionMuscle relaxation techniques to adjust the treatment of cervical vertigo effect is remarkable, the neck before and after treatment with X-ray examination of the changes in transcranial Doppler, suggesting that improved treatment of cervical spine disorder is the key to building. Muscle relaxation techniques to adjust the neck with the elimination of abnormal stress disorder, to correct the power lines and restore the role of static and dynamic balance, and thus restore the balance of cervical spine mechanics.
