Short-term effects of EMG biofeedback for chronic rheumatic back pain have been documented, however, the long-term efficacy of this treatment modality has not yet been established. Twenty-two patients of an original sample of 24 patients who participated in a treatment outcome study [6] were followed up 2.5 years after they had been treated with either EMG biofeedback, pseudotherapy, or conventional medical treatment alone. The results indicate that patients treated with EMG biofeedback maintained beneficial effects and differ significantly from the control groups both on behavioral and cognitive responses to the pain, but not global pain intensity ratings. These data support the long-term utility of biofeedback for chronic rheumatic back pain.
肌电图生物反馈疗法对慢性风湿性背痛的短期疗效已有文献记载,然而,这种治疗方式的长期疗效尚未确立。在一项治疗效果研究[6]中,最初参与研究的24名患者中有22名患者,在接受肌电图生物反馈疗法、伪治疗或单纯常规药物治疗后,于2.5年后接受了随访。结果表明,接受肌电图生物反馈疗法治疗的患者保持了有益效果,在对疼痛的行为和认知反应方面与对照组有显著差异,但在总体疼痛强度评分上无差异。这些数据支持了生物反馈疗法对慢性风湿性背痛的长期效用。
