Clinical observation on acupoint threads embedding in treatment of post-dialysis fatigue in maintenance hemodialysis patients
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint threads embedding in treatment of fatigued patients after maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods 66 patients with post-MHD fatigue were randomly divided into control group and treatment group,with 33 cases in each group.Control group underwent MHD,while treatment group underwent MHD+acupoint embedding.The clinical fficacy,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score and total score,hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),interleukin-6(IL-6),Functional Assessment-Fatigue Scale for Chronic Disease Treatment(FACIT)score,and Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)score of the two groups were evaluated.Results After treatment,the total effective rate of treatment group was higher than that of control group(P＜0.05);the PSQI score and total score of both groups were lower than those before treatment,and were lower in treatment group than control group(P＜0.05);hs-CRP and IL-6 levels in treatment group were lower than those before treatment,and were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05);FACIT scores of both groups were higher than that before treatment,while HAMA scores were lower,and both scores were superior in treatment group to those in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Acupoint threads embedding has a good effect on fatigue after MHD,improving sleep quality,reducing micro-inflammatory response,and improving fatigue and anxiety.
