Clinical application of short electroacupuncture at lumbar Jiaji acupoint in the treatment off chronic non-specific low back pain
Objective:To observe the clinical application of short electroacupuncture at lumbar Jiaji acupoint in the treat-ment off chronic non-specific low back pain(CNLBP).Methods:A total of 160patients with CNLBP treated in the hospital were enrolled between January 2020to May 2023.According to random number table method,they were divided into short acupuncture group(short electroacupuncture at Jiaji acupoint),Jiaji group(electroacupuncture at Jiaji acupoint),common electroacupunc-ture group(electroacupuncture at routine acupoints)and control group(oral drugs),40cases in each group.The total response rate of clinical treatment,scores of visual analogue scale(VAS)and Oswestry disability index(ODI)before and after treatment,occurrence of adverse reactions during treatment and recurrence rate after treatment were compared among the four groups.Re-sults:After 4weeks of treatment,total response rates of treatment in short acupuncture group were higher than common electroacu-puncture group and control group(P＜0.05),VAS and ODI scores were lower than those in the other three groups(P＜0.05).During treatment,there was no difference in the incidence of adverse reactions among the four groups(P＞0.05).After 3and 6months follow-up,recurrence rate in short acupuncture group was lower than that in the other three groups(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference among Jiaji group,common electroacupuncture group and control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Compared with electroacupuncture at Jiaji acupoint,electroacupuncture at routine acupoints or oral drugs,short electroacupunc-ture at Jiaji acupoint can improve the curative effect on CNLBP patients,which can significantly relieve pain and discomfort,with faster onset,lower recurrence rate and higher safety.
