摘要
目的:这项前瞻性研究旨在评估对乙酰氨基酚和经皮神经电刺激疗法(TENS)对控制疼痛的镇痛效果:这项前瞻性研究旨在评估对乙酰氨基酚和经皮神经电刺激疗法(TENS)在控制疼痛方面的镇痛效果:40 名接受固定正畸治疗的正畸患者被随机分配到以下 3 组中的一组:(1) 对乙酰氨基酚组;(2) TENS 治疗组;(3) 对照组。在放置 0.014 英寸镍钛弓丝和 0.016 英寸镍钛弓丝后的 12、24、36 和 48 小时,使用 10 厘米视觉模拟量表(VAS)对疼痛进行评估。由于发现数据是非正态的,因此在第一阶段和第二阶段的组内比较中采用了 Kruskal-Wallis 检验:在第一阶段和第二阶段,对所有三组在不同时间间隔的 VAS 评分进行评估后发现,A 组和 B 组之间的差异在统计学上不显著(P>0.05)。A组与C组相比得分显著,B组与C组相比得分显著:结论:与安慰剂组相比,TENS 和对乙酰氨基酚都能减轻患者的疼痛。对乙酰氨基酚组的 VAS 结果与 TENS 组相似。
Evaluation of the Effects of TENS Therapy and Acetaminophen on Pain Alleviation in Initial Orthodontic Treatment.
Objective: This prospective study aimed to evaluate the analgesic effects of acetaminophen and Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapy for pain control.
Methods: Forty orthodontic patients who underwent fixed orthodontic treatment were randomly assigned to one of 3 groups: (1) acetaminophen, (2) TENS therapy, or (3) control. Pain was evaluated at 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours after the placement of both 0.014" NiTi and 0.016" NiTi archwires using a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS). Because the data were found to be non-normal, Kruskal-Wallis test was employed for both stage I and stage II intra-group comparisons.
Results: For both stage I and stage II, evaluation of the VAS scores for all 3 groups at different time intervals showed that the difference between groups A and B was statistically insignificant (p>0.05). The scores of Group A compared to Group C were significant, and Group B compared to Group C showed significant values.
Conclusion: Both TENS and acetaminophen reduced the pain experienced by patients compared with the placebo group. The acetaminophen group showed VAS results similar to those of the TENS group.
