Abstract:

Objective　To observe efficacy of acumicroprobe loose solution combined with traditional Chinese acupuncture for cervical vertigo.  Methods  100 patients with cervical vertigo were randomly divided into an observational group and a control group with 50 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were only loosened by acumicroprobe， while patients in the observational group were treated by Acumicroprobe combined with traditional Chinese acupuncture. Visual analogue scales and effective rates were observed before and two weeks after treatment in two groups.　Results　The scores of visual analogue scale (VAS) after treatment in observational group and control group [(2.14±0.83)、(3.78±1.30)] were decreased compared with those  before treatment[(7.17±2.83)、(7.25±2.48)]，the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05); There was a statistically significant difference of VAS scores after treatment between the two groups(P＜0.05). The effective rate of the observational group and control group was 72% and 56% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant（P＜0.05）.  Conclusion　Acumicroprobe  loose solution combined with traditional Chinese acupuncture can gain the apparent better efficacy on cervical vertigo in comparison with the simple acumicroprobe loose solution， making it worthy of clinical popularization and application.
