Objective To observe the effect of shoulder joint axial stretching method on treatment of 76 cases of periarthritis of shoulder and to explore its clinical value.
Methods Seventy-six cases with periarthritis of shoulder treated in the hospital from March 2014 to June 2015 were selected as the research objects and all patients conformed to consent and basic requirements of ethics committee and the requirements of periarthritis of shoulder diagnostic criteria.Then according to paired grouping method they were divided into two groups,38 cases in each group.The control group adopted the traditional massage therapy while observation group adopt shoulder axial pull stretch therapy,shaking method for treatment,two groups were treated 5 times/week and 2 weeks for a course of treatment,all accepted two courses of treatment,to compare two groups of curative effect.
Results The observation group had 13 cases(34.2%) cured,19 cases(50.0%) were markedly effective,5 cases(13.2%) in effective,1 case(13.2%) in vain,and total effective rate of observation group was 97.4%(37 cases),it was significantly higher than the control group.5 cases(13.2%) were cured,10 cases(39.5%) were markedly effective,15 cases(39.5%) in effective,8 cases(21.1%) were ineffective in the control group,the total effective rate was 78.9%(30 cases),the difference was statistically significant,
P<0.05.The scores of VAS in observation group were 4.6±0.7 and 2.1±0.6 after 2 courses of treatment and were significantly lower than those in control group(5.8±0.8,3.2±0.5),and the difference was statistically significant,
P<0.05.Before treatment there was not statistically significant in the pain,function and activity between two groups,
P>0.05.After treatment the pain,function and activity of the observation group were 25.2±3.5,16.9±1.6,21.4±3.2 and were significantly better than those of the control group(20.3±4.1,14.7±1.2,17.4±3.1),
P<0.05.
Conclusion The effect of shoulder joint axial stretching method in treatment of 76 cases of periarthritis of shoulder is better,pain,function and activity were improved,so it has important clinical value.
