Clinical Observation On The Treatment Of Knee Osteoarthritis By Acupuncturing The Knee After Five Hole

Objective:This topic that observing the clinical effect of the treatment of knee osteoarthritis by acupuncturing the five hole after the knee, Studying the method of acupuncturing the five hole after the knee to improve the function of the muscles around the knee joint and the effectiveness of the treatment knee osteoarthritis, which provided a new choice for the clinical treatment of knee osteoarthritis.Methods:All cases came from the outpatient departmentthe of affiliated rehabilitation hospital of Fujian medical university. According to the diagnostic criteria of the disease and inclusion criteria of the disease, screening of60patients with the knee osteoarthritis,who divided into the treatment group of acupuncturing the five hole after the knee and the control group of taking the Diclofenac Sodium Sustained-release Capsules by the simple random control method. Each group contained30cases. Before and after the treatment assessing the two groups by observation of relevant indicators and detect indicators(including the WOMAC integral Scale, symptom integral scale, rang of motion test and the isokinetic muscle test).Results:1, After the treatment, two groups of patients whose WOMAC total integral, WOMAC-pain integral, WOMAC-morning stiffness integral, the WOMAC-daily activities integral, symptom integral, the joint range of motion and the hamstring and quadriceps muscle power were significantly improved between before and after treatment(P<0.05).2,The total effective rate of the treatment group was93.33%,11cases were cured,12cases had markedly effective in5cases, ineffective in2cases. The total effective rate of the control group was76.67%,9cases were cured,8cases had markedly effective in6cases, ineffective in7cases. The treatment group was more effective than the control group(P<0.01).3, After the treatment, the WOMAC total integral, WOMAC-pain integral, WOMAC-morning stiffness integral, the WOMAC-daily activities integral, symptom integral, Hamstring muscle of the treatment group were significantl impoved than that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:1. Acupuncturing the five hole after the knee was more effectively improve the clinical curative effect of knee joint than taking the Diclofenac Sodium Sustained-release Capsules. To improve the effect of the WOMAC integral, symptom integral, Hamstring muscle is remarkable.2, Acupuncturing the five hole after the knee can obviously improve the hamstring muscle strength, thus make the knee flexor ratio is relatively higher and promote the stability of the muscles around the knee joint, so as to achieve the goal of improve the symptoms of knee joint.
