ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of successive trigger needling plus motorial needling in treating external humeral epicondylitis.Method Sixty-two eligible subjects with external humeral epicondylitis were randomized into a treatment group and a control group,31 cases each.The treatment group was intervened by successive trigger needling plus motorial needling,and the control group was treated with ordinary acupuncture.The two groups were both treated once a day.After 10 sessions of treatment,the changes of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scores were observed,and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result The VAS and ADL scores were changed significantly respectively after 1-week and 2-week treatment in both groups (P＜0.05).After the treatment,the changes of VAS and ADL scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group (P＜0.05).The total effective rate was 96.8％ in the treatment group versus 93.5％ in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusion Successive trigger needling plus motorial needling is an effective approach in treating external humeral epicondylitis,and it can improve the ADL.
