Clinical Efficacy Of Acupuncture Combined With Acupoint-injection Therapy In Chronic Gastritis With Spleen-stomach Weakness

Objective:The subject was to assess the efficacy of acupuncture combined with acupoint-injection therapy in chronic gastritis with Spleen-stomach weakness,in order to explore its more effective prevention and treatment programs.Method:60patients meeting the diagnostic inclusion and exclusion criteria of chronic gastritis with Spleen-stomach weakness were selected and were randomly divided into treatment group (combining acupuncture point injection) and control group (oral medicine) with30cases in each group.The control group:Medicine (Omeprazole each20mg,once daily; Domperidone each10mg,3times a day) before meals take15-30minutes.The treatment group:Acupuncture (point in:Zhongwan Gongsun Neiguan Zusanli) and huangqi acupoint-injection(point in:Ganshu pishu Weishu each injection1ml, Zusanli each injection2ml),acupuncture point injection and injection were1day.Both groups were treated in a course of4weeks with another4weeks of follow-up.The clinical symptom scores and the improvement of the quality of life were observed and recorded before and after the treatment,The data was analyzed with SPSS18.0software.Results:(1)When the treatment was over,the result showed that the effective rate of treatment group(86.67%) while the control group(80%)which showed no significant difference (P>0.05) between the two groups.After4week’s follow up, the result showed that the effective rate of treatment group(80%) compare to the control group(56.67%) have great significant difference.(2)The clinical symptom scores and the quality of life scores were lower in both group when the treatment was over or after4week’s follow up compared with that before treatment(P<0.01). The clinical symptom scores and the quality of life integration between the two groups had no significant difference when the treatment was over(.P>0.05),but showed significant difference after4week’s follow up(P<0.05). This indicated that the treatment group was superior to the control group on the improvement of quality of life. (3)The individual symptom improvement were better in both group when the treatment was over or after4week’s follow up compared with that before treatment(P<0.01).At the end of the treatment groups for epigastric fullness, pain, eat less improvement was no significant difference (P>0.05), but four weeks after the end of treatment these symptoms in the treatment group improved significantly better than the control group (P<0.01).(4)Neither the treatment group nor the control group showed any adverse reactions.Conclusions:This study suggest that acupuncture combined with acupoint-injection therapy is effective,and both of the patient’s clinical symptoms (epigastric fullness, epigastric pain and eating less) and quality of life were improve with no adverse reactions,so should be widely applied in chronic gastritis with Spleen-stomach weakness.
