Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of continual needle knife treatment for cervical spondylosis and whether it increases adverse reactions and the number of treatments.MethodNinety-two patients with cervical spondylosis were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 47 cases and a control group of 45 cases. The treatment group received continual needle knife therapy once every day and the control group, interrupted needle knifetherapy once 10 days.ResultThere were no statistically significant differences in the number of treatments, the total efficacy rate and postoperative adverse reactions between thetwo groups (P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences inthe treatment period and cure rate between the two groups (P<0.05). The treatment period was significantly shorter in the treatment group than in the control group(P<0.05). The cure rate was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the controlgroup(P<0.05).ConclusionContinual needle knife therapy cannot increase postoperative adverse reactions and the number of treatments. It can significantly shorten the treatment period, avoid another injury and increase the cure rate in the patients.
