Abstract:
Objective: To observe and evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of using pediatric Tuina (Chinese therapeutic massage), Tui-Pushing chest-back manipulation, in treating children with cough variant asthma (CVA).Methods: Seventy-two kids with CVA were divided into two groups using the random number table method, with 36 cases in each group. The control group received the conventional Tuina treatment, and the observation group received additional Tui-Pushing chest-back manipulation. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions were observed and recorded for the two groups. Results: After three treatment courses, compared with the control group, the observation group showed advantages in the total effective rate, reducing the number and intensity of cough and improving the nature of cough (P<0.05). However, at the one-month follow-up, there were no significant differences between the two groups in these parameters (P>0.05). Regarding the adverse reaction rate, there was no significant between-group difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: It is effective and safe to use pediatric Tuina, Tui-Pushing chest-back manipulation, plus the conventional treatment protocol to treat CVA in children.
