Application of modified Du Channel moxibustion combined with cupping therapy on patients with ankylosing spondylitis of kidney deficiency and cold in Du channel type
Objective To explore the application effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) nursing technology combined with modified Du channel moxibustion and cupping therapy on patients with ankylosing spondylitis of kidney deficiency and cold in Du channel type. Methods Convenience sampling method was used to select 99 patients with ankylosing spondylitis of kidney deficiency and cold in Du channel type admitted to the Rheumatology and Immunology Department of Qingdao Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from November 2022 to September 2023 as research subjects. They were randomly divided into an experimental group,a control group 1 and a control group 2,with 33 patients in each group. On the basis of conventional western medicine treatment,the experimental group implemented modified Du channel moxibustion and cupping therapy;the control group 1 received modified Du channel Moxibustion therapy;the control group 2 were treated with cupping therapy,and the intervention duration of all groups was 4 weeks. The differences in the TCM syndrome scores,Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI),Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index(BASFI),and Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life(ASQoL)questionnaire among three groups before intervention,2 weeks after intervention and 4 weeks after intervention were compared. Results A total of 6 cases were dropped,and finally 30 cases in the experimental group,32 cases in the control group 1 and 31 cases in the control group 2 finished the study. The time,intra group,and interaction effects of the TCM syndrome score,BASDAI,BASFI and ASQoL in the three groups of patients were statistically significant (P<0.05). The indexes of the experimental group were better than those in the control group 1 and control group 2 at 2 weeks,4 weeks after intervention (P<0.05). Conclusions Modified Du channel moxibustion combined with cupping therapy can effectively reduce the severity of pain,improve spinal function and improve quality of life for patients with ankylosing spondylitis of kidney deficiency and cold in Du channel type.
