Abstract

Objectives: To analyze the clinical effect of electroacupuncture (EA) at Erheliao (TE22) and Jianer (Extra) on subjective tinnitus in the acute phase.

Methods: A total of 68 patients with subjective tinnitus were randomly divided into an observation group (34 cases, 1 case dropped out) and a control group (34 cases, 1 case dropped out). In the control group, the routine acupuncture was administrated. In the observation group, besides the regimen as the control group, EA was applied to TE22 and Jianer (Extra). In the two groups, the needles were retained for 30 min in each intervention, and the intervention was delivered once daily and 1 course of treatment was composed of 15 days;and two courses of treatment were required. Before and after intervention completion, the scores of tinnitus evaluation questionnaire (TEQ), visual analogue scale (VAS) for tinnitus and insomnia severity index (ISI) were observed. Using SF-36 quality of life assessment scale, the scores for physical health and mental health were evaluated. The clinical effect was calculated.

Results: After treatment, the scores of TEQ, VAS and ISI were decreased in the two groups compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). The scores of TEQ, VAS and ISI in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). When compared with the scores before treatment, the scores of physical health and mental health were increased after treatment in both groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the score of physical health between the two groups, but the score of mental health in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 87.9% (29/33) in the observation group and 72.7% (24/33) in the control group. The total effective rate in the observation group was superior to that of the control group (P<0.05).

Conclusions: EA at TE22 and Jianer (Extra) combined with routine acupuncure can better promote the recovery of tinnitus and improve the quality of lift and psychological health in the patients, presenting a satisfactory clinical effect.

[电针二合髎穴（TE22）、夹耳穴（Extra）治疗急性期主观性耳鸣的临床观察]。

目的：分析电针二合耳穴（TE22）和夹耳穴（Extra）治疗急性期主观性耳鸣的临床疗效。方法：68例主观性耳鸣患者随机分为观察组（34例，退出1例）和对照组（34例，退出1例）。对照组给予常规针刺治疗。观察组在以该方案为对照组的基础上，应用EA治疗TE22和健尔（Extra）。两组每次干预均留针30 min，每天1次，15天为1个疗程，共2个疗程。观察干预完成前后耳鸣评价问卷（TEQ）、耳鸣视觉模拟量表（VAS）评分和失眠严重程度指数（ISI）评分。采用SF-36生活质量评定量表，分别对身体健康和心理健康得分进行评定。计算临床疗效。结果：治疗后，两组患者TEQ、VAS、ISI评分均较治疗前降低（P0.05）。观察组患者TEQ、VAS、ISI评分均低于对照组（P0.05）。与治疗前比较，治疗后两组患者身体健康和心理健康得分均升高（P0.05），两组患者身体健康得分差异无统计学意义，但观察组患者心理健康得分高于对照组（P0.05）。观察组总有效率为87.9%(29/33)，对照组总有效率为72.7%（24/33）。观察组总有效率优于对照组（P0.05）。结论：TE22穴电针联合健儿（Extra）配合常规针刺治疗能更好地促进耳鸣患者的康复，改善患者的生活质量和心理健康，临床效果满意。
