AIM: To study the effects of treating diabetic neuritis by microwave and circulated compression to limbs.METHODS: The microwave and Bio-compression sequential circulator model 3004 were used, which is a complete system encompassing pneumatic pump and an arm or leg sleeve with permanently attached tubing. Each sleeve was divided into ten compartments that inflated in a directional manner moving fluid and increasing circulation. Pressure in each of the compartments could be individually adjusted to accommodate each patients' need(4 - 13.5 kPa once a day, for 30 minutes).RESULTS: After the therapy, of all the 63 cases, validity and total effectiveness of treating group were respectively 95% and 68% compared to 54%and 16% of control group. There was a significant difference between the two groups( t = 11.9 - 12.2, P < 0.01 ). Conductive speed of motor nerves was significantly increased after treatment( t = 0. 55 - 8.34, P < 0.01 ).CONCLUSION: Microwave and circulated compression to limbs combined with medicine to treat diabetic peripheral neuritis is proved to be a better way.%目的:观察微波与加压肢体综合治疗2型糖尿病所致的末梢神经炎的治疗效果.方法:采用微波微-温热量常规治疗肢体末端,3004型顺序循环治疗仪,该仪器具有4个相互重叠的、对肢体由远端向近端进行间断的、系列性挤压的气舱(压力4~13.5 kPa),治疗1次/d,30 min,连续30次为一疗程.结果:治疗组63例显效率及总有效率(68%,95%)优于对照组(16%,54%).治疗后神经传导速度明显改善(t=11.6-12.2,P<0.01);由于全身血液循环好转,促进了尿糖、血脂等代谢的改善(t=0.55-8.34,P<0.05).结论:应用微波和循环肢体加压综合治疗糖尿病性末梢神经炎是一种较好的治疗方法,对末梢神经的恢复又有明显的促进作用.
