Acupuncture for Pain Control in the Emergency Department

2015년 12월 3일 업데이트: Gi Young Yang, Korean Medicine Hospital of Pusan National University

Acupuncture for Non-emergent Acute Musculoskeletal Pain and Primary Headache in an Emergency Department Setting: a Parallel, Randomized, Controlled Pilot Trial

Acupuncture is widely used for managing acute and chronic pain conditions. In the context of an emergency department (ED), patients often present with non-emergent acute pain symptoms. This may result in a delayed triage process and inefficient emergent management. An integrative patient-care approach in emergency departments has been explored that may improve patient satisfaction and promote efficient use of healthcare resources for non-emergent patients in the ED. This implies there is a potential role for acupuncture in such contexts. The aim of this pilot study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture as an add-on intervention for patients with non-emergent acute musculoskeletal pain and primary headaches in an ED setting.

Hypotheses of this study are as follows:

  1. A single session of add-on acupuncture, with standard ED management, can reduce pain levels in non-emergent acute pain, compared to standard ED management alone.
  2. A single session of add-on acupuncture to standard ED management can reduce additional consumption of healthcare resources for management of non-emergent acute pain, compared to standard ED management alone.

This study aimed to include 40 participants, 20 in the acupuncture plus standard ED management group and 20 in the standard ED management alone group.

활성 비교기: Standard ED management alone
Radiographic and physical examinations to exclude fractures or other serious conditions will be performed for all patients before considering eligibility in the study. After completion of the examination, patients who have pain of at least a level 4, as measured by the Wong-Baker scale (ranges 0 to 10), will receive intravenous or intramuscular injections of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for immediate pain control. All patients will be observed 30 minutes after the administration of the NSAIDs. In patients with primary headaches who respond poorly to the initial NSAID injection, an intravenous injection of opioid analgesics will be provided. After these initial standard ED management interventions, patients who are still suffering from acute pain will be asked to participate in the trial. During the study, rescue medication for immediate pain control will be allowed for patients allocated to both groups.
절차: Standard ED management alone
실험적: Acupuncture plus standard ED management
The patients in this group will receive a single session of individualized acupuncture treatment delivered by a certified Korean Medicine Doctor (KMD) specialized (or in-training) in acupuncture and moxibustion medicine and with at least 3 years of clinical experience. The acupuncture formulas will be composed based on the individual patient's symptoms and at the KMD's discretion. Acupuncture treatments will be provided in line with standard ED management, the same as in the control group.

주요 결과 측정

결과 측정
측정값 설명
기간
Immediate reduction in pain intensity
기간: at ED discharge (within 3 hours from ED admission)
Participant-perceived reduction of pain intensity will be measured by the pain Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) (Range 0 to 10 referring 0 to no pain and 10 to extreme pain)
at ED discharge (within 3 hours from ED admission)

2차 결과 측정

결과 측정
측정값 설명
기간

기간: 72 hours after the ED discharge
Participant-perceived reduction of pain intensity will be measured by the the pain NRS (Range 0 to 10 referring 0 to no pain and 10 to extreme pain)
72 hours after the ED discharge
Short-term disability due to neck pain (only for patients with neck pain)
기간: 72 hours after the ED discharge
