目的探讨关节镜下半月板成形术治疗膝关节半月板损伤患者的效果及对Lysholm评分、关节生理功能的影响。方法选取2017年9月—2020年2月在本院行关节镜下治疗的膝关节半月板损伤106例患者,据治疗方法不同分为观察组及对照组各53例,观察组...目的探讨关节镜下半月板成形术治疗膝关节半月板损伤患者的效果及对Lysholm评分、关节生理功能的影响。方法选取2017年9月—2020年2月在本院行关节镜下治疗的膝关节半月板损伤106例患者,据治疗方法不同分为观察组及对照组各53例,观察组采用关节镜下半月板成形术治疗,对照组采用关节镜下半月板切除术治疗。比较2组术后临床疗效和手术前后疼痛程度、关节活动度、膝关节功能及生活质量改善情况;术后随访6个月,了解2组术后并发症发生情况。结果术后观察组总有效率显著高于对照组(P<0.05);术后,2组视觉模拟评分法(visual analogue score,VAS)评分明显降低,关节活动度及Lysholm评分、国际膝关节评分委员会(international knee documentation committee,IKDC)膝关节主观功能评分明显升高,且术后观察组VAS评分下降程度、关节活动度及Lysholm评分、IKDC膝关节主观功能评分升高程度均大于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05或P<0.01);观察组术后改良美国特种外科医院膝关节总评分明显高于对照组(P<0.01);术后,2组世界卫生组织生存质量测定量表简表(World Health Organization quality of life scale-brief form questionnaire,WHOQOL-BREF)社会功能、物质生活、躯体功能、心理功能评分均明显升高,且观察组术后WHOQOL-BREF量表各领域评分均显著高于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05或P<0.01);随访期间2组均未发现明显并发症。结论对膝关节半月板损伤患者行关节镜下半月板成形术治疗,具有令人满意的临床效果,并且可以有效改善患者疼痛程度,促进患膝关节生理功能恢复,提高患者生活质量。展开更多
目的:用单盲的研究方法评定冲击波治疗(ESWT)肩周炎的临床效果。方法:选取47例肩周炎患者,将其随机分为两组,其中冲击波治疗组给予冲击波治疗(n=26),对照组给予关节松动术加短波治疗(n=21)。简化McGill疼痛问卷(short form McGill pain ...目的:用单盲的研究方法评定冲击波治疗(ESWT)肩周炎的临床效果。方法:选取47例肩周炎患者,将其随机分为两组,其中冲击波治疗组给予冲击波治疗(n=26),对照组给予关节松动术加短波治疗(n=21)。简化McGill疼痛问卷(short form McGill pain questionaire,SF-MPQ)用来评估患者治疗前,疗程结束时,疗程结束后第1周,第4周,第8周疼痛症状的改变,肩关节功能使用关节活动度(ROM)改变来评估治疗前与疗程结束时的变化。结果:试验结束后,两组患者的疼痛症状较治疗前有明显改善(P<0.05)且ROM显著增加(P<0.05)。其治疗效果的两组间比较差异无显著性意义(P>0.05)。结论:冲击波治疗作为一种安全、有效且省时的治疗方法,能够用于肩周炎的治疗。展开更多
