Effects of Wenjing Tongluo decoction fumigation combined with routine rehabilitation training on patients with ankle fracture after the surgery
Objective:To observe effects of Wenjing Tongluo decoction fumigation combined with routine rehabilitation training on patients with ankle fracture after the surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 104 patients with ankle fracture treated in this hospital from January to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to different postoperative rehabilitation methods,they were divided into observation group(n=52)and control group(n=52).The control group was given routine rehabilitation training,while the observation group was treated with Wenjing Tongluo decoction fumigation on the basis of that of the control group.The total effective rate,the visual analogue scale(VAS)score,the American Orthopaedic Foot&Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot score,the Barthel index(BI)score were compared between the two groups.The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group during the treatment was statistically analyzed.Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was 92.31%,which was significantly higher than 71.15%of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).At 12 weeks after the surgery,the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores and the BI scores of the two groups were higher than those 1 day after the surgery,and those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group;the VAS scores of the two groups were lower than 1 day after the surgery,and that in the observation group was lower than that in the control group;and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).During the treatment,there were no obvious adverse reactions in the observation group.Conclusions:Wenjing Tongluo decoction fumigation combined with routine rehabilitation training for the patients after ankle fracture surgery can improve the total effective rate of treatment,the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores and the BI scores,and reduce the VAS scores.Moreover,it is superior to simple routine rehabilitation training.
