Clinical Observation On The Curative Effect Of TCM Treatment Of Meniscus Injury

Objective:To compare the clinical effects between traditional chinese medicine(TCM) plus kinesitherapy and single TCM therapy on meniscus injury of knee.Methods:According to random number table and single blind trials, patients with meniscus injury of keen joint from the rehabilitation compartment of Sichuan provincial orthopedics hospital are randomly divided into two groups:the treatment group with combined TCM and kinesitherapy, and the control group with single TCM therapy. Before treatment there is no significant difference between the two groups in such baseline information as gender、age、course and location of disease, and scores with treatment group as48.53±14.83and control group as48.60±19.73. Related index measurement are proceeded at the0week, the third week and the sixth week of treatment respectively. According to the TCM curative effect evaluation standard of the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine on meniscus injury of knee joint,this paper aims to observe the muscle force, range of motion(ROM),and Lysholm score of knee joints.Non-parametric statistical method is used for enumeration data, and t-test for measurement data, to observe related index before and after treatment,compute the improvement rate, analyze and evaluate the adverse reaction.Results:l,At the sixth week of treatment, ROM scores with treatment group as129.33±6.79and control group as120.00±10.17; muscle force scores with treatment group as4.80±0.36and control group as4.50±0.41, and there is significant difference between groups.2,At the sixth week of treatment, Lysholm score increases obviously in both groups (treatment group as81.73±10.02and control group as70.23±15.02); and there is significant difference between groups.Proform more choices for meniscus Ⅰ/Ⅱ injury and in injury which do not want surgery.3,In terms of comprehensive curative effect, the improvement rate is96.67%in the treatment group and90.00%in the control group.Conclusion:l,the therapy of TCM plus exercise is superior to single TCM therapy for meniscus injury. 2,the therapy of TCM plus exercise for meniscus injury of knee joint is characterized with good clinical effect, no obvious complication, and practicable operation, which contribute a lot to the application and promotion of the non-operation treatment for knee meniscus injury.
