摘要

目的：

观察基于田从豁教授“调理气机”理论的中药穴位贴敷联合蜡疗治疗肝胃不和证功能性消化不良（FD）的临床疗效。

方法：

将120例肝胃不和证FD患者随机分为联合组（30例，脱落1例）、单纯贴敷组（30例，脱落1例）、单纯蜡疗组（30例，脱落1例）和基础治疗组（30例，脱落2例）。基础治疗组予口服奥美拉唑镁肠溶片，每次20 mg，每日1次。在基础治疗组基础上，单纯贴敷组于中脘、神阙行中药穴位贴敷，每次4 h；单纯蜡疗组于腹部中脘至神阙区域予蜡疗，每次20 min；联合组予中药穴位贴敷联合蜡疗，均每隔1~2天1次，每周 3 次。4组均治疗4周。分别于治疗前后观察患者主要症状积分、简明生活质量量表（SF-36）评分及肝胃不和证积分，并评定临床疗效。

结果：

治疗后，4组患者各项主要症状积分和肝胃不和证积分低于治疗前（

0.01）；联合组、单纯贴敷组患者SF-36各维度评分高于治疗前（

0.01，

0.05），单纯蜡疗组患者SF-36生理机能、躯体疼痛、总体健康、精力、社会功能、精神健康评分高于治疗前（

0.01，

0.05），基础治疗组患者SF-36生理职能、躯体疼痛、总体健康、精神健康评分高于治疗前（

0.05，

0.01）。治疗后，联合组患者餐后饱胀不适积分低于基础治疗组及单纯蜡疗组（

0.01），早饱、上腹痛、上腹烧灼感积分及肝胃不和证积分低于其余3组（

0.01，

0.05）；SF-36生理机能、生理职能、躯体疼痛评分高于基础治疗组（

0.01，

0.05），生理机能、躯体疼痛评分高于单纯贴敷组（

0.01，

0.05），生理机能、精力评分高于单纯蜡疗组（

0.05）。治疗后，单纯贴敷组患者各项主要症状积分、肝胃不和证积分及单纯蜡疗组患者肝胃不和证积分低于基础治疗组（

0.01，

0.05）。联合组、单纯贴敷组、单纯蜡疗组、基础治疗组总有效率分别为93.3%（28/30）、73.3%（22/30）、66.7%（20/30）和50.0%（15/30），联合组总有效率高于其余3组（

0.01），单纯贴敷组、单纯蜡疗组总有效率高于基础治疗组（

0.01）。

结论：

基于田从豁教授“调理气机”理论的中药穴位贴敷联合蜡疗可有效治疗FD，减轻主要症状，改善生活质量。
