| Abstract
|
| [Objective] To observe the clinical efficacy of radiofrequency thermocoagulation in the treatment of mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis.[Methods] Sixty patients with knee osteoarthritis were enrolled. They were divided into two groups according to the admission,30 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with radiofrequency thermocoagulation twice,once every 6 days,and 1 course for 12 days. The control group used traditional acupuncture therapy,once a day for treatment,and 12 days for one course of treatment. The patients were scored before treatment and 1 month and 3 months after treatment with efficacy evaluation,VAS score and Lysholm score,and soft tissue tension was measured before treatment and after 3 months of treatment.[Results] Compared with the control group,the observation group was superior to the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The VAS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group at 1 month and 3 months after treatment. Lysholm The scores were higher than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with the control group,the soft tissue tension was lower than that of the control group after 3 months of treatment.[Conclusion] Radiofrequency thermocoagulation for the treatment of mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis can effectively relieve pain and improve soft tissue tension,and the curative effect is remarkable. |
