Abstract

Objective : I planned to write this paper to use more Dong-Si acupunture treatment clinically by comparing Dong-Si acupunture with common acupunture for lumbago. Methods : This study was carried out on 56 patients with lumbago who were hospitalized in Dongshin Univ. Oriental Hospital from 1st, April, 2001 to 31st, Octover, 2001. Group A of 28 patients were taken both common acupunture and Dong-Si acupunture. And Group B of 28 patients were only taken common acupunture. And after 10 days of admission, I checked and compared VAS(Visual Analogue Scale) and improvement index out of these two groups. Results : In improvement index, Group A is $0.3932{\pm}0.1073$ and Group B is $0.2793{\pm}0.1080$. So Group A is thought to be significant(P=0.000). In VAS(Visual Analogue Scale), Group A is $6.9286{\pm}1.4889$ and Group B is $5.0000{\pm}1.4142$. So Group A is also thought to be significant(P=0.0000). Conclusion : The group with both Dong-Si acupunture and common acupunture treatment is more effective than the group with common acupunture treatment.
