Therapeutic efficacy observation on combining interaction and routine acupuncture for intractable facial palsy

Abstract

Objective

To observe the clinical efficacy of interaction acupuncture combining with routine acupuncture for intractable facial palsy.

Methods

A total of 60 eligible cases were randomly allocated into a treatment group (n=30) and a control group (n=30). Cases in the treatment group received interaction and routine acupuncture, whereas cases in the control group received routine acupuncture alone. The treatment was done once a day and 10 times made up a course of treatment. The patients were treated for a total of 3 courses and there were no intervals between two courses.

Results

The total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group (including 17 recovery cases, 11 improvement cases and 2 failure cases), versus 76.7% in the control group (including 8 recovery cases, 15 improvement cases and 7 failure cases), showing a statistical difference (P<0.05).

Conclusion

Combining interaction and routine acupuncture can obtain better effect than routine acupuncture alone for intractable facial palsy.
