Abstract

Background and purpose

This parallel, single-center, pragmatic, randomized controlled study aimed to investigate the effectiveness and safety of motion style acupuncture treatment (MSAT; a combination of acupuncture and Doin therapy) to reduce pain and improve the functional disability of patients with acute low back pain (aLBP) due to road traffic accidents.

Materials and Methods

Ninety-six patients with aLBP admitted to the Haeundae Jaseng Hospital of Korean Medicine in South Korea due to traffic accidents were treated with integrative Korean medicine (IKM) with additional 3-day MSAT sessions during hospitalization (MSAT group, 48 patients) or without (control group, 48 patients), and followed up for 90 days.

Results

The mean numeric rating scale (NRS) scores of low back pain (LBP) of the MSAT and control groups were both 6.7 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.3, 7.1) at baseline. After completing the third round of all applicable treatment sessions (the primary endpoint in this study), the mean NRS scores of the MSAT and control groups were 3.76 (95% CI: 3.54, 3.99) and 5.32 (95% CI: 5.09, 5.55), respectively. The difference in the mean NRS score between the two groups was 1.56 (95% CI: 1.25, 1.87).

Conclusion

IKM treatment combined with MSAT can reduce pain and improve the range of motion of patients with aLBP.

腰部运动式针灸治疗对急性腰痛住院患者的疗效：实用随机对照试验。

背景和目的：这项平行、单中心、务实、随机对照研究旨在调查运动式针灸治疗（MSAT；针灸和Doin疗法的组合）对减轻道路交通事故导致的急性腰背痛（aLBP）患者的疼痛并改善其功能障碍的有效性和安全性：96名因交通事故入住韩国海云台嘉盛韩医医院的急性腰背痛患者接受了韩医综合疗法（IKM）治疗，并在住院期间额外接受了为期3天的MSAT治疗（MSAT组，48名患者）或未接受MSAT治疗（对照组，48名患者），并进行了为期90天的随访：基线时，MSAT 组和对照组的腰背痛（LBP）数字评分量表（NRS）平均得分均为 6.7（95% 置信区间 [CI]：6.3, 7.1）。在完成所有适用治疗疗程的第三轮后（本研究的主要终点），MSAT 组和对照组的平均 NRS 评分分别为 3.76（95% 置信区间：3.54，3.99）和 5.32（95% 置信区间：5.09，5.55）。两组的平均 NRS 评分差异为 1.56（95% CI：1.25，1.87）：试验注册：该试验已在 ClinicalTrial.gov (NCT04956458) 上注册。
