To compare therapeutic effects of needle-knife therapy and acupuncture on cervical spondylosis.
Multi-central clinical randomized controlled trial was adopted. The patients were divided into a needle-knife treatment group treated with needle-knife therapy at the upper and lower interspinal ligaments of the affected vertebral body and bilateral posterior joint capsules; and the acupuncture control group were treated with acupuncture at Laozhen, Ashi points and cervical Jiaji points, etc. The short-term and the long-term therapeutic effects were observed at the end of the therapeutic course and 6 months after the end of the therapeutic course.
The short-term therapeutic effect and the long-term therapeutic effect were 91.3% and 94.7% in the needle-knife treatment group and 59.4% and 56.6% in the acupuncture control group, respectively, with a very significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01).
The needle-knife treatment in the therapeutic effect on cervical spondylosis is superior to acupuncture treatment.
比较针刀疗法与针刺疗法治疗颈椎病的疗效。
采用多中心临床随机对照试验。将患者分为针刀治疗组，在患椎上下棘间韧带及双侧后关节囊行针刀治疗；针刺对照组，针刺老针、阿是穴及颈夹脊穴等。在疗程结束时及疗程结束后6个月观察短期及长期疗效。
针刀治疗组短期疗效和长期疗效分别为91.3%和94.7%，针刺对照组分别为59.4%和56.6%，两组差异非常显著（P<0.01）。
针刀治疗颈椎病的疗效优于针刺治疗。
