Clinical Observation Of The Treatment Effect Of Electro-acupuncture Of Different Frequencies On Simple Obesity

Aimthe effect of electro-acupuncture with different frequency on Simple ObesityMethodThe cases collected are patients in the acupuncture wards and outpatient clinics of the Yonghe Branch and Tucheng Branch of Mingshi Chinese Medicine United Clinics. The qualified patients are randomly classified into groups of high frequency, medium frequency, low frequency and controlled groups. Connect G6805 electro-acupuncture device with the needle handle and administer the continuous wave. The current flow is that the patient can endure. Low-frequency group:2Hz; medium-frequency group:50Hz; high-frequency:100Hz; controlled group:OHz. The needles maintain 30 minutes each time. Each treatment course includes 20 days. Treatment efficacy is evaluated after each treatment course. During the treatment period, patients are asked to take 3 meals each day and adopt correct diet method.Result①After the chi square test, the treatment efficacy distribution difference of each group has statistical significance. The clinical efficacy rate of high-frequency group (95.0%) is obviously higher than that of control group (70.0%) (P<0.01). Compare the clinical efficacy rate of medium and low frequency groups with that of controlled group and the result is P<0.05.②the change of body girth:After one treatment course, the mean of chest circumference, upper arm circumference, thigh circumference and leg circumference has the tendency of decrease but has no statistical significance; the waist circumference and rump circumference decrease obviously and has statistical significance. The low-frequency and medium-frequency and controlled groups have significant difference compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). The high-frequency group has very significant difference compared with that before treatment (P<0.01). After treatment, the waist and rump circumference of high-frequency group are lower than those of other groups and have statistical difference compared with controlled group (P<0.01).③The weight and constitutional index comparison before and after treatment of each group:the low, medium and controlled groups all have statistical significance (P<0.05), high frequency group P<0.01; the high-frequency group is lower than that of each of the other groups and has statistical difference with controlled group (P<0.05)④The blood-fast sugar doesn't change much before and after treatment in each group. The total cholesterol of medium and high frequency groups drops and has significant difference (P<0.05). No significant difference is found between the two groups (P>0.05).⑤The fast insulin decrease of high frequency and controlled groups has significant difference (P<0.05) and no significant difference is found between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionElectro-acupuncture has better treatment efficacy in the treatment of Simple Obesity compared with the acupuncture without electricity. The different frequency of electro-acupuncture will cause the change of puncturing effect. The high-frequency electro-acupuncture has better treatment effect than that of low and medium frequency groups.
