Observation on the curative effect of Lai's Tongyuan acupuncture on renal anemia with both deficiency of spleen and kidney and clinical study on the influence of Hb,RBC and HCT levels
Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Lai's Tongyuan acupuncture on renal anemia with both defi-ciency of spleen and kidney and its effects on hemoglobin(Hb),erythrocytes(RBC)and hematocrit(HCT).Methods:According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,60 patients with renal anemia with both deficiency of spleen and kidney who maintained hemodialysis were selected and randomly divided into control group(31 cases)and experimental group(31 cases).The patients in both groups received basic treatment.The patients in the control group were given recombinant hu-man erythropoietin for injection.On the basis of the treatment in the control group,the patients in the experimental group were treated with Lai's Tongyuan acupuncture method at Baihui,Zhongwan,Qihai,Guanyuan,Tianshu(bilateral),Zu-sanli(bilateral),Taixi(bilateral),Sanyinjiao(bilateral),Xinshu(bilateral),Geshu(bilateral),Ganshu(bilateral),Pishu(bilateral)and Shenshu(bilateral).The treatment was given 3 times a week for 4 weeks in both groups.After 4 weeks,the TCM syndrome scores and the levels of Hb,RBC and HCT were observed in the two groups,and the therapeutic effect of Lai's Tongyuan acupuncture was evaluated.Results:During the study,1 case dropped out in each group,and 30 cases were finally effective in each group.(1)There was no statistical significance in clinical efficacy between the two groups(P>0.05),but the control efficiency of the experimental group was better than that of the control group,with statistical sig-nificance(P<0.05).(2)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of the two groups were decreased;the TCM syndrome scores of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group,the difference of TCM syndrome scores before and after treatment was higher than that of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.01).(3)After treatment,the levels of Hb,RBC and HCT in the two groups increased.The levels of Hb,RBC and HCT after treatment and the differences of Hb,RBC and HCT before and after treatment in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion:Lai's Tongyuan acupunc-ture has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of renal anemia with both deficiency of spleen and kidney,which is worthy of clinical application.
