Objective : The Purpose of this Study is to Evaluate Clinical Effect of Oriental Medical Treatement Clinically for the HNP by Comparing the Improvement of VAS and Meridian MAX Score Gap between Common Acupuncture with Sa-am Acupuncture Treatment Group and Common Acupuncture Treatment Group.
Methods : The 29 patients who had a Diagnosis of HNP by Lumbar CT and MRI, and were Observed from the first June 2000 to the tenth May 2001, were divided into two classes; the "A"group was 14 cases practised with Acupuncture treatment used Sa-am Acupuncture with Common Acupuncture, the "B" group 15 cases only Common Acupuncture. Then the time of Discharge, The Authors compared VAS(Visual Analogue Scale) and Meridian Max score Gap out of these two groups.
Results : On the result of the VAS(Visual Analog Scale), Group "A" is 4.14±2.62 and Group "B" us 2.27±1.94 . So Group "A" is thought to be significance.(Independent T-test, P-0.0399).
On the result of the Meridian Max Score Gap, Group "A" is 2.13±7.29 and Group "B" is 1.43±8.42. So Group "A" proceed more excellent result than the Group "B"
Conclusions : The Group with Sa-am Acupuncture and Common Acupuncture treatment is more effective than the Group With Common Acupuncture treatment. And the Group of Done Cox is more effective than the Group of None.
