Observation on clinical effect of Scalp cluster acupuncture treatment of cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type

To observe the difference in clinical effect of Scalp cluster acupuncture on cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type.Using a randomized control design, 96 patients with vertebral artery cervical spondylopathy were randomly divided into two groups: conventional acupuncture point combined with Scalp cluster acupuncture group (treatment group) 48 cases, conventional acupoint group (control group) 48 cases. After 2 courses of treatment, it was judged by observing clinical efficacy evaluation, DARS evaluation, and VAS pain scale.The total effective rate was 93.8% in the treatment group and 79.2% in the control group; the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P <0.05). Before treatment, the difference in DARS between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05); after treatment, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P <0.01); After treatment, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P > 0.05).The VAS scores of the two groups of patients before treatment were comparable (P>0.05), and there were significant differences between the two groups after treatment (P <0.05);The difference of VAS score between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.01).Scalp cluster acupuncture therapy is more effective than traditional acupuncture therapy alone in treating vertebral artery type cervical spondylosis.
