ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe clinical therapeutic effect of acupuncture kinetotherapy for acute simple laryngitis of wind-heat type and to probe the mechanism.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Eighty cases were randomly divided into a test group and a control group, 40 cases in each group. The test group were treated with acupuncture kinetotherapy (Acupuncture was given at Kaiyin point No. 1 combined with deep respiratory movement of the glottis), once daily. The control group were treated with ultrasonic aerosol inhalation of 0.9% sodium chloride injection, gentamicin sulfate injection 80 000 U and Dexamethasone injection 5mg, twice a day. The treatment was given for 5 days for the 2 groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The cured and markedly effective rate was 90.0% in the test group and 82.5% in the control group with no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05); in the test group there was a very significant difference before and after treatment in the cumulative score of symptoms and the acoustic parameters (P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Acupuncture kinetotherapy has obvious therapeutic effect on acute simple laryngitis of wind heat type, with no toxic and adverse effects.</p>
