- Abstract:
- Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of extracorporeal shock wave combined with resistance training inelderly patients with primary sarcopenia. Methods A total of 90 elderly patients with primary sarcopenia were selected asresearch objects. All patients were numbered according to their admission numbers, corresponding to the numbers on therandom number table one by one. Those with the corresponding numbers of even number at the end of the random numberwere assigned to control group (n=45, receiving resistance training), while the remaining were assigned to observation group(n=45, receiving extracorporeal shock wave besides the same treatment as control group). The changes of parametersmeasured by ultrasonic instruments in the two groups were analyzed. Results After 3 months of treatment, compared withcontrol group, observation group had thicker muscle thickness, larger pennate angle, longer muscle bundle, larger Young’smodulus in relaxation state and contraction state, and higher ASMI value (all P<0.05). In the observation group, ASMI valuewas positively correlated with muscle thickness, pennate angle, muscle bundle length and Young’s modulus (relaxation state,contraction state) (r=0.361, 0.339, 0.378, 0.353, 0.398, respectively; P=0.015, 0.023, 0.010, 0.017, 0.007, respectively).Conclusion The combined treatment of extracorporeal shock wave and resistance training is feasible, and the imagingindicators of ultrasonic detection can be used as feasible indicators to assess the recovery of patients with sarcopenia.
