To access the therapeutic effect of Tuina for treatment of infants eczema.
Two hundred and forty children with eczema were randomly divided into a Tuina group and a medication group, 120 cases in each group. The Tuina group was treated with Tuina on ten points using the thumb and middle finger, and the medication group was treated with oral administration of Chlorpheniramine and topical application of zinc oxide ointment or Youzhuoer ointment, etc. The therapeutic effects were evaluated after 3 weeks.
The cured-markedly effective rate and total effective rate were 94.2% and 99.2% in the Tuina group and 98.0% and 100.0% in the medication group, respectively, the therapeutic effects were similar in the two groups (both P>0.05); 6 months after treatment, the recurrence rate of 3.8% in the Tuina group was significantly lower than 42.9% in the medication group (P<0.01), and there were no adverse reactions in the whole research process.
Tuina on ten points for treatment of infants eczema has unequivocal short-term effect, a stable long-term effect, and low recurrence rate.
探讨推拿治疗婴幼儿湿疹的疗效。
将240例湿疹患儿随机分为推拿组和药物组，每组120例。推拿组采用拇指与中指对10个穴位进行推拿治疗，药物组采用口服氯苯那敏及外用氧化锌软膏或尤卓尔软膏等治疗。3周后评估疗效。
推拿组的痊愈显效率和总有效率分别为94.2%和99.2%，药物组分别为98.0%和100.0%，两组疗效相近（均P>0.05）；治疗6个月后，推拿组复发率为3.8%，明显低于药物组的42.9%（P<0.01），且整个研究过程中未出现不良反应。
10穴位推拿治疗婴幼儿湿疹近期疗效确切，远期疗效稳定，复发率低。
