Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of electroacupuncture in Guanyuan(Ren4) and Zhongji(Ren3) on the functions of neurogenic bladder in patients with spinal cord injury(SCI) with the standard urodynamic measure.Methods15 patients with neurogenic bladder after SCI were included into the study.During urodynamic measure,they accepted electroacupuncture in Guanyuan(Ren4) and Zhongji(Ren3).The changes of the bladder storage volume(VH2O),bladder pressure(Pves),detrusor pressure(Pdet) and bladder compliance(BC) before and after electroacupuncture were recorded.ResultsThe patients' VH2O increased from(124.00±77.37) ml to(144.47±85.87) ml(P<0.01),Pves decreased from(65.33±23.90) cmH2O to(55.27±17.52) cmH2O(P<0.05),Pdet decreased from(52.87±18.68) cmH2O to(44.93±15.82) cmH2O(P<0.05)and BC increased from(2.35±2.05) ml/cmH2O to(3.48±3.04) ml/cmH2O(P<0.01).ConclusionElectroacupuncture is effective on neurogenic bladder recovery in patients with SCI.
