We examined the effect of acupuncture for the overactive bladder.
Eleven patients (9 males and 2 females) with the overactive bladder were treated with acupuncture. The age of the patients ranged from 51 to 82 years (mean 71 years). Nine patients complained of urge incontinence and 2 patients of urgency. Uninhibited contraction was observed in all patients before the acupuncture. A disposable needle (0.3 mm in diameter, 60 mm in length) was inserted into bilateral BL-33 points at the depth of 50 to 60 mm and was rotated for 10 minutes manually. The treatment was performed 4 to 12 (average 7 times).
Urge incontinence was controlled completely in 5 and partially in 2 of 9 patients. In 2 patients who complained urgency complete response was obtained after the treatment. Uninhibited contraction disappeared in 6 patients after the treatment. Acupuncture induced an increase of maximum bladder capacity and bladder compliance with statistical significance (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05), respectively.
Acupuncture at the BL-33 point was effective for controlling the overactive bladder.
我们研究了针刺治疗膀胱过度活动症的效果。
对11例膀胱过度活动症患者（9例男性，2例女性）进行针刺治疗。患者年龄在51至82岁之间（平均71岁）。9例患者主诉急迫性尿失禁，2例患者主诉尿急。针刺前所有患者均观察到无抑制性收缩。将一次性针（直径0.3mm，长度60mm）双侧秩边穴进针，深度50至60mm，手动捻转10分钟。治疗进行4至12次（平均7次）。
9例患者中，5例急迫性尿失禁完全得到控制，2例部分得到控制。2例主诉尿急的患者治疗后获得完全缓解。治疗后6例患者无抑制性收缩消失。针刺使最大膀胱容量和膀胱顺应性增加，具有统计学意义（分别为p<0.01和p<0.05）。
针刺秩边穴对控制膀胱过度活动症有效。
