Clinical Study on the Treatment of Intractable Hiccup with Cervical Spine Acupuncture Therapy
Objective:To observe the clinical study of cervical spine acupuncture therapy for intractable hiccup.Methods:60 intractable hiccup patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,30 cases each group.The treatment group was treated with cervical spine acupuncture and the control group was treated with conventional acupuncture,7 times as a course of treatment,for 2 courses.By observing the reduction and stopping time of hiccup,the clinical curative effect,treatment onset time and treatment courses of the two groups were compared.Results:The total effective rate of the treatment group was 96.70%,the initial effec-tive rate of 24 hours was 73.30%,and the cure rate of 2 courses was 96.70%,all of which were better than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The cervical spine acupuncture therapy has a good curative effect and rap-id onset on intractable hiccup and can improve the clinical symptoms of patients in a short time,improve the total ef-fective rate,and then shorten the course of the disease,and can quickly and obviously improve the quality of life of pa-tients,which has a higher patient satisfaction and is worthy of wide application.
