Brief Summary:
Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria patients with head and face PHN who met the requirements were selected as trial subjects and the efficacy was clarified in a randomized controlled design trial The visual analog score VAS was used as the primary evaluation index and the depression self-assessment scale score Hamilton depression scale Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale and quality of life evaluation scale SF-36 were used as the secondary evaluation indexes and oral pregabalin was used as the control group and the subjects in the pregabalin and the plexus superficial stabbing combined with electroacupuncture groups were observed respectively at the time of Before treatment immediately after the first treatment after 2 days of treatment after 2 weeks of treatment after 4 weeks of treatment after 1 month of follow-up after the end of treatment and after 2 months of follow-up after the end of treatment
Detailed Description:
On the one hand it was clarified whether plexus needle shallow stabbing combined with electroacupuncture for the treatment of PHN in the head and face has clear and stable advantages in pain reduction improvement of mood sleep quality and quality of life and formed the clinical standardization of plexus needle shallow stabbing combined with electroacupuncture for the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia in the head and face which in turn lays the foundation for the further popularization of acupuncture for the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia in the head and face and also provides a new scientific and effective way of thinking about clinical analgesic therapies for postherpetic neuralgia
On the other hand this study will clarify the correlation between facial thermal radiation characteristics and clinical symptoms in patients with head and face PHN and apply infrared thermography as an objective evaluation of the efficacy index of plexus needling and shallow stabbing combined with electroacupuncture in the treatment of head and face PHN which will provide a new method for objectively verifying the clinical efficacy of PHN
