Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) in the treatment of sequelae of inflammatory pelvic diseases in women.
Methods:A total of 100 patients diagnosed with sequelae of inflammatory pelvic diseases were selected . They were randomly divided into three groups : transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) treatment group (40 cases) , drug treatment group (30 cases) and combined treatment group (30 cases) . The three groups received treatment for four weeks : the medication group received Kangfu xiaoyan shuan ; the combination treatment group received TEAS combined with Kangfu xiaoyan shuan ; and the TEAS treatment group received the highest level of electrical stimulation that the human body could withstand via medium_low frequency pulsed electrotherapy instrument on the Guanyuan acupoints or the uterine acupoints . Prior to and following treatment , the three patient groups ’local sign score , symptom and sign score (McCormack score) , visual analogue scale ( VAS) score for lower abdomen pain , and SF_36 scale score were observed . Additionally , the three groups ’incidence of adverse events was noted .
Results: Following the intervention , all three groups ’local sign score , McCormack score , and VAS score for lower abdomen pain were considerably lower than they were before the intervention (P < 0. 05) . These three scores showed significant differences (P < 0. 05) between the combination treatment group and the TEAS treatment and drug treatment groups . The combined treatment group ’s scores were lower. The three groups ’total somatic health score and total mental health score before and after the intervention differed significantly (P < 0. 05) after the period of therapy. Additionally , the combined treatment group ’s total somatic health score and total mental health score were higher than those of the medication group . In all three groups , there were no notable negative reactions .
Conclusion :TEAS treatment is effective in relieving the symptoms of chronic pelvic pain due to the sequelae of inflammatory pelvic disease , and the combination of medication is better than monotherapy in improving pain symptoms and quality of life .
