OBJECTIVE: To compare the difference in the clinical efficacy on mild and moderate female stress @entity322 (FSUI) between transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation and oral administration of @entity21172 tablets. METHODS: Ninety cases of mild and moderate FSUI were randomized into an observation group and a control group, 45 cases in each one. In the observation group, the transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation was applied to Ciliao (BL 32), Shenshu (BL 23), Zigong (EX-CA 1), Guanyuan (CV 4) and Qihai (CV 6), once a day. In the control group, @entity21172 tablets were prescribed for oral administration, 2. 5 mg per treatment, three times each day. The duration of treatment was 4 weeks. The score of international consultation on incontinence questionnaire- @entity322 short form (ICI-Q-SF) and leakage of urine in 1 h urinal pad test were observed before and after treatment in the @entity1 of the two groups, and the efficacy was compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The score of ICI-Q-SF and leakage of urine in urinal pad test after treatment were all improved apparently as compared with those before treatment in the two groups (all P<0. 01), and the results in the observation group were better than those in the control group (both P<0. 01). The total effective rate was 86. 7% (39/45) in the observation group, which was better than 68. 9% (31/45, P<0. 05) in the control group. CONCLUSION: The transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation achieves the better efficacy on FSUI as compared with the oral administration of @entity21172 tablets. This therapy effectively improves the @entity1 's urine control ability and reduces leakage of urine.
