Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of Yaobitong Capsules combined with Fu's subcutaneous needling on lumbar range of motion and surface electromyography of trunk extensors in patients with lumbar disc herniation(LDH).Methods A total of 80 patients with LDH of blood stasis type were randomly divided into the study group and the control group,with 40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with Yaobitong Capsules orally,and the study group was given Fu's subcutaneous needling combined with Yaobitong Capsules orally.The course of treatment for the two groups covered 2 weeks.The changes of lumbar range of motion,pain visual analogue scale(VAS)score,improved Chinese Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)score,Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire(RMDQ)score and surface electromyography of trunk extensors in the two groups before and after treatment were observed.After treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.Results(1)After 2 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate of the study group was 97.50%(39/40),and that of the control group was 80.00%(32/40).The intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the clinical efficacy of the study group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the range of motion of lumbar flexion,extension and rotation in the two groups was significantly improved compared with that before treatment(P＜0.05),and the improvement of lumbar range of motion in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(3)After treatment,the lumbar function scores of ODI score and RMDQ score in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease of ODI score and RMDQ score in the study group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.01).(4)The pain VAS scores of the study group after one week,2 weeks and one month of treatment and the pain VAS scores of the control group after 2 weeks and one month of treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease of pain VAS scores of the study group after one week,2 weeks and one month of treatment was significantly superior to that of the control group(P＜0.01).(5)After treatment,the parameters of surface electromyography of trunk extensors such as integrated electromyographic value(IEMG)and mean power frequency(MPF)in the two groups were obviously increased compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the increase of MPF and IEMG in the study group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion Yaobitong Capsules combined with Fu's subcutaneous needling can significantly enhance the curative effect of LDH patients,alleviate the lumbar range of motion,improve the surface electromyography of trunk extensors,and relieve muscle fatigue and pain symptoms.
