摘要

Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of external counterpulsation combined with lipoic acid in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetic foot of grade 0-2. Methods: 62 patients with diabetic foot from January 2019 to October 2020 were selected and divided into control group and external counterpulsation group according to different treatment schemes, 31 cases in each group. The control group was given intravenous lipoic acid, and the external counterpulsation group was given external counterpulsation combined with intravenous lipoic acid. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared, and the blood flow parameters, ankle brachial index and common peroneal nerve conduction velocity of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. Results: The total effective rate of the treatment group (93.54％) was significantly higher than that of the control group (48.38％) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the vessel diameter of dorsalis pedis artery (2.552±0.024mm) and ankle brachial index (0.923±0.036) in ECP group were significantly higher than those in control group (1.864 ± 0.020) and ankle brachial index (0.843±0.030) (P < 0.05). After the control group and the external counterpulsation group were treated, the levels of serum of VEGF, bFGF、IGF-1 (85.479±4.239,148.27±14.25,62.33±3.75;94.163±8.917,200.88±14 .58,81.35±1.08) was significantly higher than that before treatment (57.264±0.801,106.44±3 .83,30.90±0.42;57.133±0.850,106.78±3.69,31.01±0.56), the levels of MMP-2 (2.035±0.08, 1.417±0.21) after treatment in the control group and the external counter stroke group after treatment (2.035±0.08, 1.417± 0.21) was significantly lower than that after treatment.The levels of VEGF, bFGF and IGF-1 in ECP group were significantly higher than those in control group, and MMP-2 was significantly lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The clinical effect of external counterpulsation combined with lipoic acid in the treatment of type 2 diabetic foot with grade 0-2 is significant, which can effectively improve the blood flow parameters of dorsal foot artery, ankle brachial index and common peroneal nerve conduction velocity, with less adverse reactions.
