Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the analgesic effect and tolerance profile of acupuncture combined with intradermal sterile water application versus intramuscular phloroglucinol in acute renal colic. In this study, we aimed primarily to test the efficacy of acupuncture combined with intradermal sterile water application as a rapid and effective treatment in severe renal colic.

Participants will randomly divided into two groups. The first group received only intramuscular phloroglucinol, the second group received acupuncture and intradermal sterile water.The visual analog scale (VAS,ranging from 0 for no pain to 10 for maximum imaginable pain) was used to assess pain intensity at baseline and at 10, 20, 30, 45,and 60 minutes following the start of the treatment protocol. Possible treatment side effects were also recorded.

Conditions

  • Renal Colic

Interventions

DRUG

Phloroglucinol

The active comparators will be treated with 40 mg of Phloroglucinol in the form of a single intramuscular injection.

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Acupuncture Combined Intradermal Sterile Water

Acupuncture was applied to a seated patient using the urinary bladder meridian points and combianed Intradermal Sterile Water in costovertebral area where the patient's pain was located (Sterile water of 0.5 ml was injected as intradermal into 4 points at a depth of 1-3 mm to form papules)
