Objective To observe the clinical effect of Qihuang needle therapy in the treatment of dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease.Methods A total of 60 patients with Parkinson's disease admitted to the Zhongshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to the Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to December 2022 were se-lected as the subjects.All patients were divided into the control group(30 cases)and treatment group(30 cases)according to a random number table.The patients in the control group were treated with western conventional treatment,and the patients in the treatment group were treated with western conventional treatment combined with Qihuang needle therapy.The motor function,clinical efficacy,quality of life and adverse reactions of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The to-tal effective rate of treatment of patients in the treatment group was higher than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the 39-item parkinson's disease questionnaire(PDQ-39)and uni-fied-parkinson disease rating scale Ⅲ(UPDRS-Ⅲ)scores of the two groups of patients were lower than before treatment,and the observation group was lower than the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).No sig-nificant adverse reactions were observed in both groups.Conclusion Qihuang needle therapy in treatment for patients with Parkinson's diseases can effectively improve motor function,and quality of life.It is safe and reliable.
