Study on the immediate analgesic effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy for NLBP in athletes
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of the immediate analgesic effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on chronic non-specific lower back pain in athletes.Methods:Sixty athletes with chronic non-specific lower back pain were randomly divided into ESWT group(n=30)and control group(n=30),and given extracorpo-real shock wave therapy and magnetic vibration heat therapy,respectively.Extracorporeal shock wave therapy applied to the painful points of the lower back in athletes,treatment pressure was set to 1.8-2.5 bar,frequency 8.0-10.0 Hz,and shock 2000 times.The visual analogue score of pain(VAS)was applied to evaluate low back pain in both groups of athletes before treatment,after treatment,and at 7:00 a.m.on the following day,respectively.Results:In the ESWT group,the athletes'VAS scores decreased in the immediate post-treatment period and decreased in the following day,while in the control group,the VAS scores only decreased in the immediate post-treatment period,and there was a significant difference between the two groups immediately after the treatment(P＜0.05),and the ESWT group had better VAS scores than the control group the next day after treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Extracorporeal shock waves provide immediate relief of non-specific lower back pain in athletes,and the therapeutic effect can be sustained over time.
