Abstract:To Preliminarily optimize acupuncture treatment protocol for cervical vertigo.Methods:A total of 72 patients with cervical vertigo were selected as research subjects.With orthogonal design,9 different groups in terms of acupoint selection,needling angle and direction and depth,number of needles,needle retaining time,from four factors and three levels were studied.Cervical vertigo symptom and functional evaluation scale were set as observation indicators and the optimal scheme of acupuncture treatment for cervical vertigo was preliminarily determined.Results:Selection of acupoints,needling direction,needling depth,needle number in different levels significantly affected clinical efficacy but no obvious difference in needle retaining time.Conclusion:The primary optimization for Cervical vertigo treatment is from Naokong (GB 19) to Fengchi (GB 20) and from Naohu (GV 17) to Fengfu (GV18),with media or deep depth,by parallel needling,retaining for 1 hour.Thus,it may receive a relative optimal effect.
