Clinical observation of tuina plus heat-sensitive moxibustion for temporomandibular disorders
Tóm tắt
To observe the clinical efficacy of tuina plus heat-sensitive moxibustion in treating temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Fifty patients with TMD were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 25 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by tuina plus heat-sensitive moxibustion, while the control group was by medication. The Fricton-Shiffman craniomandibular index (CMI) was observed before and after intervention, and the clinical efficacies of the two groups were also evaluated. There was no significant difference in comparing the CMI score between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). After a treatment course, there were significant improvements in evaluating the CMI score in both groups (P<0.01), and the improvement was more significant in the treatment group than that in the control group (P<0.01). The total effective rate of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.01). Tuina plus heat-sensitive moxibustion is effective in treating TMD, and it’s safe, without adverse reactions, thus worth promoting in clinic.
