Abstract
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Duhuo-Jisheng decoction combined with traditional manipulation for the patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. Methods A total of 126 patients with orthopedic inpatients were enrolled and divided into two group by random number table method: the treatment group (63 patients) and the control group (63 patients).The control group was treated with loxoprofen sodium dispersible tablets, while the treatment group was treated with Duhuo-Jisheng decoction and traditional manipulation. Both groups were treated for 2 courses. After treatment, the patients were evaluated by VAS. The clinical effect was evaluated by Oswestry ODI. Results After treatment, the VAS scores (2.8 ± 0.3 vs. 3.5 ± 0.7, t=7.296) and ODI (10.5% ± 3 .2% vs. 15.5% ± 6.2%, t=5.688) in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group. The time of symptoms relief (2.3 ± 0.5 d vs. 5.3 ± 0.7 d, t=27.681) and the time of symptoms disappearance (28.6 ± 5.7 d vs. 54.4 ± 8.2 d, t=20.506) in the treatment group were significantly less than those in the control group (both Ps<0.01). The total effective rate (95.2% vs. 87.3%) of the treatment group was significantly better than the control group (χ2=3.938, P=0.047). Team of the incidence of adverse reactions (14.2% vs. 41.2%) in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (χ2=10.128, P=0.002). Conclusions The Duhuo-Jisheng decoction combined with traditional manipulation can alleviate the symptoms, shorten the treatment time, reduce adverse reactions for the patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. Key words: Intervertebral disk displacement; Lumbar vertebrae; Duhuo-Jisheng decoction; Manipulation, Orthopedic
