ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the clinical effect of debridement in the treatment of Kashin-Beck disease under an ankle arthroscopy.Methods Totally 40 patients with ankle Kashin-Beck disease who had underwent surgery in the Fifth Hospital of Daqing from January 2015 to October 2016 were selected as the research subjects.All patients were treated with cleaning treatment under arthroscopy,evaluated via the visual analogue scale method,and compared pain before and 6,12 month after the treatment.Walking function and ankle motion of the patients were evaluated via an ankle-scoring system,and the quality of life of patients was investigated before and after the treatment through a questionnaire survey.Results The visual analogue scale of before and 6,12 months after the treatment was (6.2 ± 1.0),(2.3 ± 1.2) and (1.6 ± 0.4) scores,respectively;ankle foot score (53.3 ± 6.8),(86.6 ± 5.1) and (88.7 ± 6.2) scores,respectively;ankle activity score (15.9 ± 4.1),(36.9 ± 4.9) and (41.8 ± 6.4) scores,respectively;and life quality score (53.1 ± 4.0),(75.4 ± 6.6) and (88.7 ± 10.5) scores,respectively.The differences between groups were statistically significant (F =2.1,2.6,2.3,2.5,P ＜ 0.05).Visual analogue scale of 6 and 12 months after the treatment was significantly lower than that before the treatment,ankle foot score and ankle activity score and life quality score were significantly higher than those before the treatment (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The debridement under an ankle arthroscopy can effectively reduce the pain of patients with Kashin-Beck disease,and improve the walking function of the patients obviously,significantly improve the patients' life quality,and the method should be widely applied in clinical treatment.
