Description
Summary:Objective: To study the effect of knee arthroscopy combined with Liuwei Gubi Pill on degenerative meniscus injury in middle-aged and elderly patients. Methods: A total of 92 middle-aged and elderly patients with degenerative meniscus injury who were treated in our hospital from August 2018 to February 2020 were collected. They were divided into two groups by envelope lottery. Knee arthroscopy was used for the reference group of 46 patients, and they were guided to perform joint function exercises after surgery; 46 patients in the experimental group took Liuwei Gubi Pill on the basis of the reference group, and compared the efficacy of the two groups. Results: The total effective rate of treatment in the experimental group was 97.83%, which was higher than the reference group’s 84.78%. The experimental group’s VAS score at 1st month, 2nd month, and 3rd month after surgery was lower than that in the reference group. The Lysholm score of the experimental group at 1st month, 2nd month, and 3rd month after operation was significantly higher than that of the reference group, and the data of the two groups was compared by P<0.05. Conclusion: The treatment of middle-aged and elderly patients with degenerative meniscus injury by knee arthroscopy combined with Liuwei Gubi Pill has an ideal effect, which can alleviate postoperative pain and benefit the recovery of knee function.
