The Clinical Study On The Treatment Of Functional Constipation (Cold Type Constipation) With Herb-participationed Moxibustion

Purpose Observe treatment of functional Constipation(cold type Constipation)with Herb-participationed moxibustion curative effect.Methods 60 patients were randomly divided into two groups:30 patients in the treatment group and 30 in the control group.The treatment group was treated with Herb-participationed moxibustion.The drug cake was made from ginger juice,defatted croton seed powder and cinnamon.The thicknes was 0.5cm and the diameter was2 cm.Acupoints: Shenque,Bilateral Tianshu.Herb-participationed moxibustion for 30 minutes.The control group was treated with conventional acupuncture and acupoints:Tianshu,Dachangshu,Shangjuxu,Zhigou,Zhaohai routine acupuncture,Moxibustion Shenque and Guanyuan.The two groups were treated once every other day,3 times a week,2 week as a course of treatment,and 3 courses of continuous treatment.At the end of the treatment,observe the effect of two groups before and after treatment of the total integration of CCS,the integral of CCS,the main symptoms of TCM syndromes and the integral of the accompanying symptoms,Then make a curative effect evaluation.Results(1)Compared with CCS,the difference was statistically significant at the end of the first course of treatment(p<0.05),The first course of treatment was improved;The CCS score in the control group had no significant difference before treatment(p>0.05),The control group had no obvious improvement in the first course of constipation symptoms.At the end of the second course of treatment,the treatment group CCS total score was improved(p<0.05);The difference,compared with the control group,had statistical significane(p<0.05),the control group began to improve in the second course of treatment.After the third course of treatment,the differences were statistically significant(p<0.05)before treatment,and both groups were able to effectively improve the symptoms of constipation.The results showed that the constipation symptoms in the treatment group began to improve from the first cours,and the patients in the control group began to improve from the second course,and the treatment group was faster than the control group.(2)During the course of treatment,the treatment group,compared with control group,can significantly reduce stool time and abdominal pain(p<0.05),indicating that the treatment group can effectively improve the bowel movement time and abdominal pain symptoms of each stool.In other items of CCS,the treatment group was equivalent to the conventional acupuncture group.(3)In the aspect of TCM syndromes,at the end of the first course,there was a statistically significant difference between the treatment group's main symptoms and the secondary disease scores before treatment(p<0.05).The TCM symptoms in the first course of the treatment group improved significantly.The difference between the control group and the main symptoms of traditional Chinese medicine before treatment was statistically significant(p<0.05).In the control group,the first course of TCM syndromes in the main syndrome,unable to pass stool,was improved;The comparison group between the groups was superior to the control group in all aspects of TCM syndromes(p<0.05).At the end of the second course,both main symptoms and secondary symptoms improved(p<0.05);In the comparison group between the two groups,the main symptoms unobstructed stools,secondary symptoms pale mouth,pale complexion,and non-warm extremities were more effective than the control group(p<0.05).At the end of the third course of treatment,both groups of TCM symptoms improved(p<0.05);The comparison between the two groups was superior to that of the control group in the main symptoms of defecation,and the remaining symptoms were comparable to the control group.This shows that the control group has a faster onset time than the control group in improving the TCM syndromes.(4)After treatment,the effective rate of treatment group was 93.33%,while the control group was 86.67%,This showed that the two treatments had not statistically significant(p>0.05).The results showed that thetwo treatments had similar efficacy.Conclusion Both Herb-participationed moxibustion and conventional acupuncture can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of functional constipation(cold constipation).the Herb-participationed moxibustion group can quickly improve constipation symptoms compared with conventional acupuncture group.The effect of Herb-participationed moxibustion on improving Abdominal pain and time of defecation was more prominent than that of conventional acupuncture group.
