Clinical observation on 100 cases of patients with lumbar disc protrusion after rapid traction with three dimensions

Objective To observate the clincal efficacy of rapid traction with thtee dimensions for treating patients with lumbar disc protrusion.Method A total of 100cases of patients with lumbar disc protrusion were from in-patients in our hospital.including 78men and 22women with a mean age of 42 years (rang ,20-62years and a disease duration of 2weeks to 8years. On the 3rd day after being hospitalized we performed the rapid traction with all vectors designed by computer (traction range :60 -65mm ,curve degree: 20-25°,rotation degree 20-25°，traction time :3s-1min .Results:Our results showed that the total effective rate was 93.00％after rapid traction with three dimensions and obviously higher in the disease duration under 3months than beyond 3months(96.67％vs 87.50％,P 0.01).No side-effect was found at the stage of treatment .Conclusion:Therapid traction with three dimensions is a safe and effective treatment for patients with lumbar disc protrusion,and the shorter the disease duration,the better the therapeutic effect.
