Abstract:objective To investigate the clinical effect of guetu decoction combined with celecoxib capsule on non-invasive necrosis of femoral head.Methods A total of 120 patients with non-traumatic femoral head necrosis were divided into the control group (n = 60) and the observation group (n = 60). Patients in the control group were treated with conventional western medicine combined with celecoxib capsule; patients in the observation group were treated with guetang plus or minus treatment for 6 consecutive months on the basis of treatment in the control group, followed up for 12 months. The clinical efficacy, Harris scale, health survey summary (SF-36), and imaging scores of the two groups were compared and analyzed before and after treatment. Score of pure hip pain, the effective rate, recurrence rate, and safety were compared between the two groups.Results During the study, 4 patients in the control group and 2 patients in the observation group were abscission. The total effective rate of observation group was 94.83%, which was higher than 78.57% of control group (P < 0.05). The recurrence rate of the observation group was 8.62%, which was lower than that of the control group (23.21%) after 12 months follow-up (P < 0.05). The Harri scale, SF-36 scale, and hip imaging scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The joint pain score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in observation group was 10.34%, which was lower than 32.14% in control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Guetu decoction combined with celecoxib capsule for the treatment of non-traumatic femoral head necrosis has better clinical efficacy, lower recurrence rate, and is more conducive to reduce the adverse reactions after taking the medicine, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
