Knee osteoarthritis is the leading cause of chronic pain and disability in the elderly, affecting 16 per cent of the world's population.
burden of knee osteoarthritis is enormous, accounting for about 1.0%-2.5% of GDP.
, the situation will worsen as life expectancy increases and obesity becomes more prevalent.
long term, acupuncture is seen as a potentially effective non-drug treatment for osteoarthritis.
results of a series of experiments that have been carried out in the past are contradictory and controversial.
causes of insistency may be related to insufficient acupuncture dose, with acupuncture frequency 1-2 times per week in most studies and 3-5 times per week in domestic clinical practice.
STUDY published in PAIN included 60 KOA patients, showing that 3 injections per week were effective and could be used for rapid relief of pain and dysfunction during KOA's acute onset period, and 1 sting therapy per week could be used for maintenance treatment after KOA's acute onset period, saving human, material and financial resources while ensuring the effectiveness of treatment.
arthritis and Rheumatology study used acupuncture treatment three times a week as an intervention to conduct large-sample randomized controlled trials.
trial was carried out jointly by nine hospitals in beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
" team based on many years of clinical experience, emphasizing the knee part of the puncture, the use of a hole and follow the allocation of holes, to the nose, inner knee eye, ququan, knee yangguan, A is the hole 5 local holes The main cave, at the same time, the knee osteoarthritis is divided into foot yang Ming certificate, foot sun evidence, foot shaoyang evidence and foot three yin evidence, according to the cumulative mesopathy by the pulse to take the hole, the formation of individual acupuncture treatment program.
" Professor Liu Xuanzhi said the study included 480 patients, patients received 24 times, each 30 minutes of electric needle, millimeter needle or false needle treatment, lasted 8 weeks.
needle group and the milli-needle group were treated with needles for 5 main holes and 3 distribution holes.
results show that compared with the false needle, three times a week electric needle treatment can significantly reduce knee pain, improve knee function, and the efficacy lasts for six months;
, electro-needle therapy can be recommended in clinical practice to treat knee osteoarthritis.
chinese medicine, because of its emphasis on individualized treatment, is difficult to obtain the recognition of Western scholars through evidence-based medicine.
This study follows the characteristics of acupuncture itself, adopts a rigorous randomized controlled trial design, conforms to the methodological requirements of evidence-based medicine, and is published in the top international journals PAIN and Arthritis and Rheumatology, which not only provides internationally recognized high-quality evidence for the efficacy of acupuncture in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, but also plays an important guiding role in the clinical practice of acupuncture.
