Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical effect of Futongning Granules for the treatment of functional abdominal pain in children. Methods A total of 187 children with functional abdominal pain were randomized into treatment group(N = 122)and control group(N = 65). The treatment group was treated with Futongning Granules and the control group was treated with Compound Pepsin Powder. The gastrointestinal syndrome scores of the two groups were observed, and the short-term and long-term clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated after treatment. Results (1)The total effective rate and the effective rate for syndromes of abdominal internal cold, spleen-stomach deficiency cold, indigestion induced by milk and food stagnation, liver-Qi stagnation, blood collateral obstruction, gastrointestinal heat stagnation in the treatment group were 92.3％, 92.9％, 95.0％, 95.2％, 90.3％, 85.7％, 90.0％, and those in the control group were 71.0％, 69.2％, 69.2％, 86.7％, 66.7％, 50.0％, 60.0％, respectively. The total effective rate and the effective rate for various syndromes in the treatment group were superior to those of the control group (P < 0.05). (2) After treatment, gastrointestinal syndrome scores of various syndromes and overall scores in the two groups were obviously decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with those before treatment), and the decrease in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group (P < 0.05). (3) The results of 6-month follow-up showed that the clinical efficacy during the follow-up in the treatment group was better than that in the control group(P < 0.05), and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Futongning Granules exert certain effect for the treatment of functional abdominal pain in children, and are effective for significantly relieving clinical symptoms and reducing the recurrence of disease.
