Effect of comprehensive moxibustion with Huolong cupping therapy on the treatment of dysmenorrhea resulting from cold-blood stasis type endometriosis

Objective To investigate the effect of comprehensive moxibustion with Huolong cupping on the treatment of dysmenorrhea resulting from cold-blood stasis type endometriosis. Methods A randomized controlled trail was used, and 120 patients with dysmenorrhea resulting from cold-blood stasis type endometriosis were recruited and divided into control group (n=60)and study group(n=60). Patients in the control group received oral administration of Ibuprofen sustained-release capsules and routine nursing interventions, and those in the studry goruo were given comprehensive moxibustion with Huolong cupping additionally. The Dysmenorrhea Symptom Score Scale and Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)were used to measure the pain degree and treatment effects of the two groups before treatment and 3 months after treatment. Results VAS score and Dysmenorrhea Symptom score were decreased in both two group after 3-month intervention, and VAS score and Dysmenorrhea Symptom score in the study group were lower than those in the control group (P＜0. 05). The total effective rate in the study group was higher than that in the control group (88. 33% vs. 75. 00%, P＜0. 05). Conclusion With regard to patients with dysmenorrhea caused by endometriosis of cold-blood stasis type, comprehensive moxibustion with Huolong cupping has a considerable effect and can be used as an important means of clinical nursing intervention. (目的 探讨火龙罐综合疗法治疗寒凝血瘀型子宫内膜异位症痛经的效果。方法 采用随机对照研究设计, 选取陕西中医药大学第二附属医院在2024年8月—2025年1月确诊的120 例寒凝血瘀型子宫内膜异位症痛经患者为研究对象, 分为对照组60例和试验组60例。对照组除必要时口服布洛芬缓释胶囊止痛外不给予任何干预, 试验组在对照组基础上增加火龙罐疗法进行综合治疗。采用痛经症状积分量表、视觉模拟量表(VAS)评分量表, 分别于治疗前、后3个月评估两组患者的疼痛情况, 对比治疗效果。结果 治疗3个月后, 两组VAS评分和痛经症状积分均较干预前下降, 且试验组VAS评分和痛经症状积分低于对照组, 差异有统计学意义(P＜0. 05)。试验组总有效率88. 33%(53/60), 高于对照组的75. 00%(45/60), 差异有统计学意义(P＜0. 05)。结论 火龙罐综合疗法治疗寒凝血瘀型子宫内膜异位症痛经患者效果明确, 可作为临床护理干预的重要手段。)
