Influence of Warm-Needle Moxibustion Combined with Suspension Exercise Training on Shoulder Joint Function and Rotator Cuff Quality of Life in Patients with Rotator Cuff Injury
Objective:To observe the effects of warm-needle moxibustion combined with suspension exercise training(SET)on shoulder joint function,and quality of life in patients with rotator cuff injury(RCI).Methods:A total of 60 RCI patients who were treated in the Acupuncture and Moxibustion Rehabilitation Department of Hangzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from March 2022 to March 2023 were selected and divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.Both groups received joint mobilization,on the basic of such treatment,the control group was treated with warm-needle moxibustion,and the treatment group was additionally treated with warm-needle moxibustion combined with SET.Both groups were treated for six weeks.After six weeks of treatment,the two groups were compared in terms of Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)for pain,range of motion of shoulder joint abduction(SAROM),Rotator Cuff-Quality of Life(RCQOL).Results:After six weeks of treatment,the VAS scores in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the VAS scores in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The SAROM in both groups were encharged when compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the SAROM in the treatment group was greater than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The RCQOL in the two groups were increased when compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the RCQOL in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Warm-needle moxibustion combined with SET can effectively improve the function of the shoulder joint function in RCI,alleviate pain,and enhance the quality of life.
