Chinese Herbal Fumigation Combined with Tuina Manipulation Has Effect on the Functional Recovery and Bone Healing of Postoperative Senile Patients with Upper Femoral Fracture
Objective:To observe the effect of Chinese herbal fumigation combined with tuina manipulation on the functional recovery and bone healing of postoperative senile patients with upper femoral fracture.Methods:Selected 70 cases of senile patients with upper femoral fracture,and divided them into the treatment group and the control group randomly,35 cases in each group.The control group received the routine therapy of exercise rehabilitation,while the treatment group additionally received Chinese herbal fumigation combined with tuina manipulation.During follow-ups,evaluated hip joint function via Harris hip function scoring system,and measured values of CT and bone tunnel widening in the local bone of affected limbs.Results:After treatment for 6 months,scores of Harris hip function scoring system in both groups were higher than those after treatment for 3 months,differences being significant(P<0.05).After treatment for 3 and 6 months,scores of Harris hip function scoring system in the treatment group were all higher than those in the control group during the same period,differences being significant(P<0.05);scores of each item in Harris hip function scoring system of the treatment group were higher than those in the control group during the same period respectively,differences being significant(P<0.05);there were no significant differences being found in the intragroup and intergroup comparison of bone tunnel widening values in both groups(P>0.05).Comparing the CT values of broken end of fractured femur after treatment for 3 months in both groups and those after treatment for 6 months,there were no significant differences being found(P>0.05).The CT values of broken end of fractured femur after treatment for 6 months in both groups were all higher than those after treatment for 3 months,differences being significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:Chinese herbal fumigation combined with tuina manipulation can promote the functional recovery of postoperative senile patients with upper femoral fracture,which impose no influence on bone healing.
