摘要
Objective: To observe the efficacy of acupuncture at points of Shaoyang meridians plus moving cupping on neck and shoulder for migraine. Methods: A total of 64 migraine cases were randomly allocated into an observation group and a control group, 32 cases in each group. Random number table method was used in allocation. Acupuncture at points of Shaoyang meridians and cupping on neck and shoulder were used for cases in the observation group, which contain acupuncture 5 times a week and cupping once a week. Oral flunarizine hydrochloride capsules were used for cases in the control group, 10 mg for each dose, 1 dose a day. 2 weeks constitutes a course of treatment. The patients were treated for two courses of treatment in both groups. After that, the changes of visual analogue scale (VAS) and the migraine disability assessment questionnaire (MIDAS) were observed, as well as the clinical efficacy. Results: The total effective rate and recovery and marked effective rate in the observation group were 93.8% and 71.0% respectively, versus 78.1% and 43.8% in the control group, showing statistical significant differences (both P〈O.05). There were significant decreases in VAS and MIDAS scores after treatments in both groups (both P〈O.05). VAS and MIDAS scores in the observation group were significantly different from those in the control group (both P〈0.05). Conclusion: Combining acupuncture at points of Shaoyang meridians and cupping on neck and shoulder can relieve headache and reduce influence of migraine on life. It can produce a better efficacy than oral flunarizine hydrochloride capsules in treating migraine patients.
目的:观察针刺少阳经穴联合颈肩部走罐治疗偏头痛的临床疗效。方法:将64例患者按随机数字表法分为观察组和对照组,每组32例。观察组予针刺少阳经穴联合颈肩部走罐治疗,每星期针刺5次,走罐1次;对照组予口服盐酸氟桂利嗪胶囊,10 mg/次,1次/d。两组均以治疗2个星期为1个疗程,共治疗2个疗程。观察治疗前后视觉模拟量表(VAS)评分及偏头痛残疾程度评估问卷(MIDAS)评分,并比较临床疗效。结果:观察组的总有效率及愈显率分别为93.8%和71.9%,高于对照组的78.1%和43.8%,组间差异均有统计学意义(均P<0.05)。治疗后两组的VAS及MIDAS评分均下降,与本组治疗前差异有统计学意义(均P<0.05),两组间差异亦有统计学意义(均P<0.05)。结论:针刺少阳经穴联合颈肩部走罐治疗偏头痛疗效确切,能减轻患者疼痛,降低偏头痛对生活的影响,其疗效优于口服盐酸氟桂利嗪胶囊。
