评估单剂量聚焦冲击波疗法治疗足底筋膜炎的有效性。
巴西圣保罗市圣保罗大学医学院骨科与创伤科开展了一项针对一系列病例的前瞻性初步研究。所有结果在患者纳入研究时以及干预后的如下时间点进行测量:三周、六周和十二周。视觉模拟评分法(VAS)、美国足踝外科协会(AOFAS)评分和简明健康状况调查量表(SF-36)由实施冲击波疗法(SWT)以外的团队进行评估。
在2017年至2018年期间收集了56例患者的数据。在对患者进行重新评估的所有时间段(3周、6周和12周),所评估参数均有改善(p < 0.005且95%置信区间),在评估的三个结果中均观察到渐进性改善。
根据所提出的方案,考虑到疼痛、功能和生活质量,冲击波疗法对足底筋膜炎治疗有效。
