The Clinical Research On Reducing South And Reinforcing North Needling Method Treating Of The Imbalance Between Heart-yang And Kidney-yin Type Of Insomnia

ObjectiveThrough using the reducing south and reinforcing north needling method to treat the imbalance between heart-yang and kidney-yin type of insomnia patients, and observing the clinical curative effect and the overall efficacy of reducing south and reinforcing north needling method in improving the Pittsburgh sleep quality index and TCM symptoms of the imbalance between heart-yang and kidney-yin type of insomnia patients, with the simple acupuncture as the control group, to discuss the reducing south and reinforcing north needling method and simple acupuncture compared to the efficacy and advantages for treating the imbalance between heart-yang and kidney-yin type of insomnia.MethodsThe standards-compliant subjects randomly assigned to the treatment group and the control group,30cases in each group, a total of60cases. The control group received general acupuncture, the treatment group received reducing south and reinforcing north needling method, both groups were treated for3times a week, every other day at a time, three weeks as a course of treatment. After treatment, the efficacy evaluation, to observe the TCM symptoms of the imbalance between heart-yang and kidney-yin type score sheet, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score and factor score changes before and after treatment. All data will be processed using the statistical software SPSS19.0. Results1.At the end of treatment, in the treatment group9cases were cured,17cases were remarkably effective,2cases were effective,1cases were ineffective and the total effective rate was95.56%. While in the control group,5cases were cured,16cases were remarkably effective,3cases were effective,6cases were ineffective and the total effective rate was80.00%. The effective rate of the treatment group is higher than the control group, the clinical effect of the two group through the statistical analysia, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.01), the clinical curative effect of the treatment group is better than control group.2. After treatment, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index of reducing south and reinforcing north needling method group compared with before treatment was significantly decreased (P<0.01), the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.01).3. After treatment, symptom scores in patients with TCM difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).ConelusionBoth the reducing south and reinforcing north needling method group and the simple acupuncture group have good therapeutic effect in treating heart-yang and kidney-yin type of insomnia. But the reducing south and reinforcing north needling method group was significantly better than the simple group, the reducing south and reinforcing north needling method group in clinical curative effect, improving sleep quality and the TCM symptoms were better than the general acupuncture group, and safe with no side effects, suitable for promotion in clinical practice.
