Clinical Observation On The Treatment Of Restless Leg Syndrome By Fire Needle With Triple Punctuer

Objective: This project investigates and analyses the mechanism and therapeutic effects of the fire-needle triple puncture method in the treatment of restless leg syndrome,providing new ideas and treatment methods for the clinical treatment of this disease.Methods: In this study,60 patients attending the outpatient clinic of the Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion at the First Affiliated Hospital of Heilongjiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected and divided into an acupuncture group and a fire-needle triple puncture group.Treatment was continued for 4 weeks and patients were rated on the International RLS Rating Scale(IRLS),Restless Legs Syndrome Quality of Life Questionnaire(RLSQo L),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI),and Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)scores before and after 4 weeks of treatment.The data collected were statistically analyzed using SPSS22.0 statistical software.Results:1.The comparison of gender,age and duration of disease between the two groups was not statistically significant(P>0.05)and could be compared.2.In terms of IRLS scores: There was no statistically significant comparison between the two groups of patients in terms of IRLS scores before treatment(P>0.05)that could be compared;after treatment,the IRLS scores of patients in both groups showed a significant decrease compared to the same group before treatment(P<0.01),but the degree of decrease was greater in the treatment group than in the control group(P<0.05),indicating that the clinical efficacy of the treatment group in improving restless legs symptoms was better than that of the control group.3.In terms of RLSQo L scores: The group comparison of RLSQo L scores between the two groups before treatment was not statistically significant(P>0.05)that could be compared;after treatment,the RLSQo L scores of patients in both groups were significantly higher(P<0.01)compared with the same group before treatment,but the increase was greater in the treatment group than in the control group(P<0.01),indicating that the treatment group improved the quality of life of patients with restless legs The degree of improvement was better in the treatment group than in the control group.4.In terms of PSQI scores: The PSQI scores of the two groups before treatment were not statistically significant(P>0.05)that could be compared;after treatment,the PSQI scores of both groups decreased significantly(P<0.01)compared with the same group before treatment,but the decrease in the treatment group was greater(P<0.01),indicating that the efficacy of the treatment group in improving insomnia was better than that of the control group.5.In terms of HAMA scores: There was no statistically significant comparison between the two groups of patients’ treatment HAMA scores(P>0.05)that could be compared;after treatment,the HAMA scores of patients in both groups had a significant degree of decrease compared with before(P<0.01),but the degree of decrease after treatment was the same in both groups(P>0.05),indicating that both groups could improve the patients’ anxiety state,and there was no difference in efficacy.6.Overall efficacy: 30 patients in the treatment group were cured clinically 9 cases,11 cases showed efficacy,6 cases were effective and 4 cases were ineffective,with an overall efficacy rate of 86.66%;28 patients in the control group were cured clinically 3 cases,9 cases showed efficacy,9 cases were effective and 7 cases were ineffective,with an overall efficacy rate of75.00%.The difference in the overall efficacy between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:1.Both the fire-needle triple puncture method and conventional acupuncture can improve the patient’s symptoms such as soreness and pain in the lower limbs,and improve the patient’s sleep quality,thus regulating and reducing the patient’s anxiety and improving the patient’s quality of life.2.In comparison,the treatment effect of the fire-needle triple puncture method on the patient’s restless legs and the improvement of insomnia caused by restless legs were better than that of the conventional acupuncture group.
