ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the response of post-surgical pain to the application of electroacupuncture and moxibustion using the IKDC scale.
Methods: Quasi-experimental study in the integral clinic of the Universidad Estatal del Valle de Toluca, the treatment consisted of the consented application of ten sessions of electroacupuncture and moxibustion distributed in two weekly sessions of 30 minutes for the monitoring of postoperative pain in anterior cruciate ligament plasty.
Results: 100 % pain reduction (VAS 0/10) was obtained from the sixth session (21 days), 100 % recovery of the surgical wounds was observed, edema was reduced to 75 % (Godet sign 1+/4+) and mobility was increased to 59% IKDC (47.4/80 total points).
Conclusions: The effectiveness of therapy with electroacupuncture (1) and moxibustion (2,3) in the treatment of post-surgical pain was evidenced by means of the IKDC (4) scale at the end of the ten sessions, in addition to accelerated healing, decreased edema and increased joint mobility in less time, being a therapeutic option in analgesia and recovery from surgical procedures as long as it is practiced according to the scientific, clinical bases.



RESUMEN

Objetivo: Analizar la respuesta del dolor postquirúrgico ante la aplicación de electroacupuntura y moxibustión mediante la escala IKDC.
Método: Estudio cuasiexperimental en la clínica integral de la Universidad Estatal del Valle de Toluca. El tratamiento consistió en la aplicación consentida de diez sesiones de electroacupuntura y moxibustión distribuidas en dos sesiones semanales de 30 minutos para el monitoreo del dolor postquirúrgico en plastia del ligamento cruzado anterior.
Resultados: Se obtuvo disminución del dolor al 100 % (EVA 0/10) a partir de la sexta sesión (21 días) observó recuperación de las heridas quirúrgicas al 100 %, disminución del edema al 75 % (signo Godet 1+/4+) y aumento de la movilidad al 59 % IKDC (47,4/80 puntos totales).
Conclusiones: Se evidenció la efectividad de la terapia con electroacupuntura (1) y moxibustión (2,3) en el tratamiento del dolor postquirúrgico por medio de la escala IKDC (4) al concluir las diez sesiones, además de cicatrización acelerada, disminución del edema y aumento en la movilidad articular en menor tiempo, siendo una opción terapéutica en la analgesia y recuperación de procedimientos quirúrgicos siempre que se practique conforme a las bases científicas, clínicas.
