This prospective study investigated the effects of acupuncture alone or combined with analgesics in chronic pain and quality of life assessed by owners for up to 24 weeks in 181 dogs with neurological and musculoskeletal diseases. The scores before and after the onset of treatment were evaluated using the Wilcoxon test and the evolution of success was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier curves. Differences were considered significant at < 0.05. The success rates for Helsinki chronic pain index (HCPI), quality of life assessment, and visual analog scales (VAS) for pain and locomotion were 79%, 84%, 78%, and 78% of the animals, respectively, when both diseases and groups of treatment were combined. Dogs with musculoskeletal disorders had greater improvement in HCPI ( = 0.003) and VAS locomotion ( = 0.045) than those with neurological disorders. Use of acupuncture alone or in combination with analgesics reduced pain and improved quality of life in dogs with neurological and musculoskeletal diseases.
这项前瞻性研究调查了单独使用针灸或联合使用镇痛药对181只患有神经和肌肉骨骼疾病的犬慢性疼痛的影响以及主人评估的长达24周的生活质量。使用Wilcoxon检验评估治疗开始前后的评分，并通过Kaplan-Meier曲线评估成功率的变化。差异在<0.05时被认为具有显著性。当将疾病和治疗组合并时，赫尔辛基慢性疼痛指数（HCPI）、生活质量评估以及疼痛和运动的视觉模拟量表（VAS）的成功率分别为79%、84%、78%和78%的动物。患有肌肉骨骼疾病的犬在HCPI（=0.003）和VAS运动（=0.045）方面的改善比患有神经疾病的犬更大。单独使用针灸或与镇痛药联合使用可减轻患有神经和肌肉骨骼疾病的犬的疼痛并改善其生活质量。
