| Abstract
|
| [Objective] To explore the effects of application therapy by the theory of Meridian Sinew on infrared temperature and pain after knee arthroscopy.[Methods] A total of 60 patients with knee arthroscopy were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in observation group were treated with application therapy by the theory of Meridian Sinew,and the patients in control group were treated with routine application therapy on the basis of routine care. The VAS scores in two groups were observed and infrared temperature in laser speckle in two groups were compared before operation,at 14th day and 28th day after operation.[Results] Infrared temperature in laser speckle were lower after treatment in both groups and VAS scores were lower after treatment in two groups (P<0.05). Infrared temperature in laser speckle were lower after treatment in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). The VAS scores were significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05).[Conclusion] Application therapy by the theory of Meridian Sinew can significantly relieve the symptoms of pain after knee arthroscopy. Application therapy can raise infrared temperature in laser speckle,which provides an evidence for pain mechanism. |
