Evaluation Study Of Traditional Chinese Medicine Applied To Acupoints And Non-acupoint Intervention On Excess-syndrome Type Sub-health Insomnia

Objective: This paper aims to comparatively analyze the differences of curative effect between acupoints and non-acupoints intervention on excess-syndrome type sub-health insomnia in traditional chinese medicine application as well as the safty eveluation based on the improvement of sleep quality and structure.Methods: The experiment is conducted by 70 Patients with excess-syndrome type sub-health insomnia who are randomly divided into acupoint group and non-acupoint group according to the type of treatment.There are 35 patients in each group and both groups would be treated within 3 cycles(28 days).Four weeks later of the whole treatment,They would be followed up.70 subjects are scored on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)for in total five times which are before treatment,after each treatments,and the follow-up four weeks later of treatment.Moreover,all patients are also scored on the Micromovement Sensitive Mattress Sleep Monitoring System(MSMSMS)before and after the treatment,and evaluating the safety of the experiment.Statistical analysis is conducted on those data we obtain by SPSS 17.0.Results:(1)The total effective rate of the acupoint group was 82.35% while the non-acupoint group was 66.67%,There was no statistic sense(P>0.05).(2)In terms of PSQI scores,Intra-group comparison: There were significant differences in the PSQI total scores and each component score after one cycle and two cycles treatments(P<0.05);by comparison with the results of the third cycle treatment,We can draw the following conclusions: the total score of PSQI was statistical sense(P<0.05),there were statistic differences in sleep latency,sleep time,daytime dysfunction and sleep efficiency in the acupoints group,and as the same as in sleep quality,sleep time,sleepefficiency,sleep disorder and daytime dysfunction of the non-acupoints group(P<0.05);Comparing the total PSQI scores in the period of Follow-up with before,There was no statistic sense(P>0.05)as well.Comparison between groups:After one cycle,two cycles,three cycles and the follow-up between the two groups,there were no statistic differences in the total scores of PSQI(P>0.05),but the acupoints group was significantly better than the non-acupoints group in sleep time,daytime dysfunction afher two cycles and in sleep latency,sleep time and daytime dysfunction afher three cycles(P<0.05).(3)In terms of MSMSMS,Intra-group comparison: There was statistic difference in the data of each component of MSMSMS all the two groups after treatment(P<0.05).Comparison between groups:The acupoints group was significantly better than the non-acupoints group in sleep latency,deep sleep,rapid eyes movement(REM),arousal times(P<0.05),but no statistic sense in sleep time,light sleep between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:(1)Acupoints and non-acupoints can all improve excess-syndrome type sub-health insomnia patient's Clinical symptoms by using traditional chinese medicine application.(2)the acupoints group was significantly better than the non-acupoints group in improving sleep latency,daytime dysfunction,deep sleep,REM,arousal times.(3)The evaluation results on sleep time of PSQI scale scoring and MSMSMS monitoring are different.
