Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of previous analgesia of acupuncture on patients with the mixed hemorrhoid surgery pain.MethodsA total of 70 patients with mixed hemorrhoid treated with “Milligan-morgan hemorrhoids” were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 35 patients in each group. The treatment group was treated 30 min prior to the surgery with needling and manipulating Baliao, Chengshan, Hegu every five minutes until the operation, while the control group was not treated before the operation. The patients were assessed by Visual Aualogue Scale and self-reporting Inventory.ResultsAfter the operation, the treatment group was significantly better than the control group in the outcome index of beginning time of pain (14.3 ± 4.9 hvs. 4.2 ± 2.3 h, Z=-5.666,P<0.01) and peak time of pain (17.3 ± 4.5 hvs. 6.0 ± 2.9 h,Z=-5.581,P<0.01). The treatment group was significantly better than the control group in decreasing the pain beginning VAS score (3.3 ± 1.7vs. 4.6 ± 1.7,Z=-2.820, P<0.01) and pain peak VAS score (4.5 ± 2.0vs. 6.5 ± 1.2,Z=-4.025,P<0.05). After surgery, the treatment group was significantly better than the control group in decreasing the score of Self-reporting Inventory scale at the 1stday (1.8 ± 1.3vs. 3.0 ± 1.3),Z=-3.472,P<0.01) and 2ndday (1.2 ± 0.9vs. 1.9 ± 1.2,Z=-2.464,P<0.05). And the treatment group was significantly better than the control group inreducing the quantities of compound aminopyrine phenacetin tablet (0.5 ± 0.9vs.1.5 ± 1.7,t=3.167,P=0.002).ConclusionAcupuncture analgesia 30 minutes prior to the mixed hemorrhoid surgery can significantly reduce the postoperative pain.
