Efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine fumigation combined with manual restoration for patients with postpartum sacroiliac joint subluxation
Objective To analyze the therapeutic efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)fumigation combined with manual restoration in patients with postpartum sacroiliac joint subluxation.Methods From January 2019 to June 2020,a total of 88 postoartum wome admitted to our hospital were selected and randomly assigned into two groups:the control group(n=44)receiving conventional treatment plus manual restoration,and the treatment group(n=44)receiving traditional Chinese medicine fumigation in attrition to the control group's treatment.The total clinical response rate,pain score(measured by Numeric Pain Rating Scale,NPRS),sacroiliac joint function score(measured by Modified Japanese Orthopedic Association score,M-JOA)and serum creatine kinase level were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate in the treatment group was 93.18%(41/44),which was higher than that in the control group,which was 77.27%(34/44)(χ2=4.423,P=0.035).Before treatment,there was no significant difference in NPRS and M-JOA scores between the two groups(P>0.05).After treatment,the scores of NPRS and M-JOA in both groups were significantly lower than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(t=6.747,4.325,P<0.05).Before treatment,there was no significant difference in serum creatine kinase level between the two groups(P>0.05).After treatment,the level of serum creatine kinase in both groups decreased,and the level of serum creatine kinase in observation group was lower than that in control group,the difference was significant(t=4.012,P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of traditional Chinese medicine fumigation combined and manual reconstruction for postpartum sacroiliac joint subluxation demonstrates favorable clinical outcomes,effectively reducing pain and improving the sacroiliac joint function.
