Clinical efficacy and complications in 2 groups were compared. RESULTS:The observation group had 2 cases of fall-off patients,and the control group had 3 cases. The total effective rate in observation group was 97.43%,which was higher than control group(74.03%),the difference was statistical-ly significant (P<0.05). The incidence of complications in observation group was 8.97%,which was lower than control group (19.48%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).
