Application of acupuncture and moxibustion therapy based on ascending and descending theory in postpartum insomnia patients
Objective To observe the application effect of acupuncture and moxibustion therapy based on the ascending and descending theory on postpartum insomnia patients.Methods 131 patients with postpartum insomnia were randomly divided into the observation group(66 cases)and the control group(65 cases)by random number table method.The control group were given routine treatment,and the observation group were given acupuncture and moxibustion therapy based on the ascending and descending theory.The sleep monitoring results,excessive arousal and sleep quality of the two groups were compared before and after treatment.Results After treatment,the total sleep duration of the observation group was higher than that of the control group,and the sleep latency and awakening frequency were lower than those of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).After treatment,the time of NREM light sleep in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,while the time of slow-wave sleep and REM were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The HAS of the observation group after 7 and 14 days of treatment was lower than that of the control group,and the PSQI scores of the observation group after 7 and 14 days of treatment were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The acupuncture and moxibustion therapy based on the ascending and descending theory can effectively improve the sleep monitoring results,excessive arousal and sleep quality of postpartum insomnia patients,and has high application value.
