Abstract
Objective:To explore the analgesic effect of ultrasonic electrical stimulation for recent pain after minimally invasive interventional therapy for intervertebral disc degenerative diseases (DDD). Methods:From January to August 2019, 130 patients with DDD who were treated by minimally invasive intervention of intervertebral disc, and then were randomly divided into electrical stimulation group and conservative treatment group. After minimally invasive intervention, the electrical stimulation group was treated by ultrasonic electrical stimulation once a day for 7 days. The conservative treatment group was treated with conventional acupuncture and massage once a day for 3 days.The pain degree of before treatment and 3 days, 7 days and 1 month(m) after treatment were evaluated by pain numberical rating scale (NRS), the curative effect of 1 m post-cure was evaluated by NRS weighting method. Results:There was no significant difference of NRS score between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05). NRS of electrical stimulation group were significant lower than those in conservative treatment group, which was evaluated at several time point for 3 days, 7 days and one month after treatment (P < 0.001). The curative effect of electrical stimulation group on one month after interventional treatment was significantly higher than that of conservative treatment group (P < 0.001). Conclusion:The therapeutic effect of ultrasonic electrical stimulation is better than that of traditional acupuncture and massage for recent pain after minimally invasive interventional therapy with DDD, it is worthy to popularize in clinical treatment. Key words: After interventional therapy with DDD; The recent pain; ultrasonic electrical stimulation
Highlights
The disc degenerative diseases (DDD) is a kind of disease characterized by pain with the intervertebral disc degenerative lesions
Since there are still pain caused by inflammatory stimulation and other factors after minimally invasive interventional therapy, so effectively alleviating the pain in the recovery period after minimally invasive interventional therapy and improving the patients' satisfaction with the efficacy, the physical therapy was carried out by using ultrasonic electrical stimulation, and its analgesic effects for recent pain post cure of intervention were researched, and compared with those using traditional conservative treatment
Spinal degenerative radicular pain is a kind of disease characterized by pain caused degeneration of intervertebral disc
Summary
The DDD is a kind of disease characterized by pain with the intervertebral disc degenerative lesions. Invasive interventional therapy (such as nerve root block, radiofrequency therapy, nerve regulation, spinal endoscopy, etc.) has a good effect for DDD [2], but which needs to recover one to three months after minimally invasive interventional therapy and tend to be stable. Ultrasound electrical stimulation is an innovative physiotherapy for chronic pain repair, which integrates biological wave, bioelectricity, biomagnetism, and small molecule transdermal delivery technology. It has good therapeutic effect for pain with tissue inflammation elimination and damaged nerve repair. Since there are still pain caused by inflammatory stimulation and other factors after minimally invasive interventional therapy, so effectively alleviating the pain in the recovery period after minimally invasive interventional therapy and improving the patients' satisfaction with the efficacy, the physical therapy was carried out by using ultrasonic electrical stimulation, and its analgesic effects for recent pain post cure of intervention were researched, and compared with those using traditional conservative treatment
