Application of walking combined with Buerger exercise in patients with grade 0 diabetic foot / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the application of walking combined with Buerger exercise in the treatment of grade 0 diabetic foot.Methods Eighty patients with grade 0 diabetic foot were randomly divided into observation group and control group.The control group was trained by walking exercise .The observation group was trained by walking combined with Buerger exercise through 12 months of training.The changes of self-sensory symptoms,ABI and DAWV were observed.Results The self-sensory symptoms of the two groups were significantly decreased (observation group: markedly effective 15 cases,effective 19 cases;control group: markedly effective 5 cases,effective 23 cases).The effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (85% vs.70%,χ2 =7.831,P <0.05).The ABI ratio of the two groups were higher than those before treatment ,and the ABI ratio of the observation group was higher than that of the control group [(0.889 ±0.113) vs.(0.842 ±0.124),t =1.772 P <0.05].The ratio of DAWV in the observation group was higher than that in the control group [(6.772 ±0.435)cm/s vs.(6.543 ±0.552)cm/s,t =2.061,P <0.05].Conclusion Walking combined with Buerger exercise can improve the blood flow velocity and blood flow of the collateral circulation of the lower limbs of patients with grade 0 diabetic foot,and improve the self-sensory symptoms of peripheral neuropathy .
