Efficacy of SD-265 method on chronic insomnia of type of heart and gallbladder Qi deficiency:A randomized controlled study
Objective It is to observe the clinical efficacy of SD-265 method in the treatment of patients with chronic insomnia of type of heart and gallbladder Qi deficiency.Methods Sixty-four cases of chronic insomnia patients treated in the Sleep Medicine Center of Guang anmen Hospital(South Branch)and Acupuncture Clinic of Guang'anmen Hospital from August 2020 to August 2022 were recruited and randomly divided into 2 groups,34 cases of the observation group were treated with SD-265 method,and 30 cases of the control group were treated with decoction for warming gallbladder by oral administration,both groups were treated for one week.The changes in subjective indexes(total score of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI),time to fall asleep,sleep duration,sleep efficiency)and objective indexes(sleep latency,number of wakefulness,wakefulness time after falling asleep,total sleep duration,sleep efficiency recorded by body movement re-corder)before and after treatment were observed in the two groups.Results Compared with those before treatment,the total scores of PSQI were significantly decreased,the times to fall asleep were significantly shortened,the sleep durations were significantly increased in the two groups after treatment,and the sleep efficiency in the observation group was significantly improved,and the total PSQI score of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group,the sleep efficiency was significantly higher than that of the control group,the differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.05).Compared with those before treatment,the sleep latencies were significantly shortened,and the sleep efficiencies were significantly improved in the two groups after treatment,the number of wakefulness was reduced in the observation group,and the sleep latency of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group after treatment,the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion SD-265 method can shorten the sleep latency peri-od,increase sleep duration,and improve sleep efficiency in the short term,thus to improve the sleep quality of patients with insomnia of type of heart and gallbladder Qi deficiency.
