Observation on Effect of Ultrasound-guided Needle Knife Release of Cervical Transverse Process in the Treatment of Cervical Spondylotic Radiculopathy
Objective:To explore the effect of ultrasound-guided needle knife release of cervical transverse process in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.Method:A total of 92 patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy who treated in Dushanzi People's Hospital of Karamay City from April 2022 to April 2023 were selected as the study objects,they were divided into the control group(receiving traditional needle-knife treatment)and the observation group(receiving ultrasound-guided needle knife release of cervical transverse process)according to random drawing method,46 cases in each group.The therapeutic effect,pain degree,cervical spine function,cervical spine activity and adverse events were compared between two groups.Result:After treatment,the total clinical effective rate of the observation group(95.65%)was higher than that of the control group(78.26%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);after treatment,the scores of visual analogue scale(VAS)and neck dysfunction index(NDI)in two groups were lower than those before treatment,and which in the observation group were lower than the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);after treatment,the cervical spine activity of two groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment,and which in the observation group were better than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);the incidence of adverse events in the observation group(2.17%)was lower than that in the control group(17.39%),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:Ultrasound-guided needle knife release of cervical transverse process is effective in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy,it helps to reduce the pain degree of patients,improve cervical function and activity,and has fewer adverse events.
