The present article focuses on the history of lumbar traction starting from early antiquity until today. The oldest existing reference available about axial traction belongs to an ancient Indian religious literature written between 3500 BC and 1800 BC. Hippocrates was the first physician to use an axial traction device to correct spinal deformities. Since Hippocrates＇ time, traction continued to be developed by the contribution of many famous physicians. After the clarification of ＂nuclear disc herniation＂ by Mixter and Barr, lumbar traction regained its popularity and in 1950s and 1960s based on James Cyriax＇s findings, lumbar traction became a preferred method for the treatment of LDH （lumbar disc herniation）. Although mechanical efficiency of lumbar traction on LDH was clearly shown in 1980s; its clinical effectiveness remains to be controversial. Today, more standardized studies with standard traction techniques are needed to be done in order to reach a definitive conclusion about its clinical effectiveness.展开更多

Methods:Eighty-three patients diagnosed as LIDH were randomly divided into treatment group (n=42)and control group (n=41). In the treatment group, besides lumbar traction, electroacupuncture at Jiaji (EX-B 2, L 3～5), Shenshu (BL 23), Qihai (CV 6), Mingmen (GV 4), Huantiao (GB 30), Chengshan (BL 57) and Yanglingquan (GB 34) was added. In the control group, only lumbar traction was applied. Results: In treatment group, the cure plus markedly effective rate was 80.95% with a total effective rate of 92.86%, while in control group, it was 39.02% with a total effective rate of 80.48%. The therapeutic effect in the treatment group was obviously better than that in the control group (P<0.001). Conclusion: Lumbar traction plus EA can effectively alleviate or even eliminate clinical symptoms and signs of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation.展开更多

Methods We observed 58 lumbar disc protrusion cases diagnosed by CT and treated with traction therapy with CT again, and compared morphological change of intervertebral disc on CT image before and after treatment. Result Effective rate of traction therapy to lumbar disc protrusion was 84.48%, there was no apparent difference in degree of lumbar disc protrusion, anterior posterior diameter of vertebral canal and lateral crypt width between before and after treatment. Conclusion Traction can relieve effectively clinical symptoms of lumbar disc protrusion, but can’t make great change in shape of protruded intervertebral disc.展开更多
