摘要

目的

研究电针对海洛因依赖者脱毒后焦虑抑郁情绪的干预效应。

方法

将 120 例海洛因依赖者按随机数字表法随机分入针刺 1 组(夹脊穴、 肾俞)、 针刺2 组(四肢穴)、 模拟组和对照组, 观察治疗前及治疗4、 8、 10 星期 SAS和SDS的变化。

结果

在治疗4、 8、10 星期, 针刺1 组、针刺2 组的SAS、 SDS积分与对照组相比, 差异均有统计学意义 (P<0.01, P<0.05)。针刺1 组与针刺2 组的SAS差异有统计学意义, 而SDS积分差异无统 计学意义。

结论

电针可明显改善吸毒者脱毒后的焦虑和抑郁情绪, 电针夹脊穴在改善 焦虑症状方面明显优于四肢穴位, 在改善抑郁症状方面与四肢穴比较差异无统计学意义。

Abstract

Objective

To investigate the intervention effect of electroacupuncture on post-withdrawal anxiety and depression of those with heroin dependence.

Method

One hundred and twenty heroin dependence cases were randomly allocated into 4 groups, including acupuncture group 1 using Jiaji (Ex-B 2) points and Shenshu (BL 23), acupuncture group 2 using points in the four limbs, simulation and control groups. Then the SAS and SDS changes were observed before the treatment and 4th, 8th and 10th week after.

Result

At the 4th, 8th and 10th week, the SAS and SDS scores in acupuncture group 1 and 2 showed significant differences with the control group (P<0.01, P<0.05). There were significant differences between SAS changes in acupuncture group 1 and 2 but there was no significant difference in SDS changes.

Conclusion

Electroacupuncture can improve the post-withdrawal anxiety and depression in heroin addicts. Jiaji (Ex-B 2) points showed significantly better effects in improving anxiety than points in four limbs but no significant difference in improving depression.
