摘要
目的使用WOMAC量表评价电子温灸仪治疗膝骨关节炎的临床疗效。方法将符合诊断标准的66例患者随机分为温灸仪组33例、艾灸组33例。温灸仪组采用电子温灸仪治疗,艾灸组采用艾灸治疗。两组取穴均为内膝眼、犊鼻、血海、梁丘,疗程均为4星期。观察两组患者治疗前后WOMAC量表评分。结果治疗后两组患者WOMAC量表评分较治疗前均显著降低(P<0.001),且治疗后温灸仪组较艾灸组显著降低(P<0.05)。结论电子温灸仪与艾灸均能有效减轻膝关节疼痛及改善膝关节功能,且温灸仪组对膝关节功能改善优于艾灸组。
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of electronic mild moxibustion equipment in treating knee osteoarthritis（KOA） by using the Western Ontario and Mc Master Universities Osteoarthritis Index（WOMAC）. Method Sixty-six eligible patients were randomized into a mild moxibustion equipment group of 33 cases and a moxibustion group of 33 cases. The mild moxibustion equipment group was intervened by electronic mild moxibustion equipment, and the moxibustion group was treated with moxibustion. In the two groups, same acupoints were selected, including Neixiyan（EX-LE4）, Dubi（ST35）, Xuehai（SP10） and Liangqiu（ST34）, and the treatment lasted for 4 weeks. The WOMAC scores of the two groups were observed before and after the treatment. Result The WOMAC scores dropped significantly in both groups after the intervention（P0.001）, and the score of the mild moxibustion equipment group was significantly lower than that of the moxibustion group（P〈0.05）. Conclusion Electronic mild moxibustion equipment and moxibustion both can effectively mitigate joint pain and improve knee joint function, but the moxibustion equipment can produce a more significant effect in improving the joint function than moxibustion.
