ABSTRACT
Objective:
To observe the clinical efficacy of interaction acupuncture combining with routine acupuncture for intractable facial palsy.Methods:
A total of 60 eligible cases were randomly allocated into a treatment group (n=30) and a control group (n=30). Cases in the treatment group received interaction and routine acupuncture, whereas cases in the control group received routine acupuncture alone. The treatment was done once a day and 10 times made up a course of treatment. The patients were treated for a total of 3 courses and there were no intervals between two courses.Results:
The total effective rate was 93.3% in the treatment group (including 17 recovery cases, 11 improvement cases and 2 failure cases), versus 76.7% in the control group (including 8 recovery cases, 15 improvement cases and 7 failure cases), showing a statistical difference (PConclusion:
Combining interaction and routine acupuncture can obtain better effect than routine acupuncture alone for intractable facial palsy.
