About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Chronic Pelvic Pain focused on measuring transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation, andrology

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)MaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient meets the diagnostic criteria of National Institutes of Health (NIH)Ⅲ type prostatitis;
  • NIH-CPSI score > 10;
  • The symptoms lasted for more than 3 months and failed to respond to drug treatment for more than 1 month;
  • Age ≥18 years old and ≤60 years old agrees and signs the informed consent;
  • Those who did not receive other similar treatment regimens during treatment.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • All kinds of bacterial infection caused by acute or chronic orchitis or epididymitis, acute or chronic prostatitis, lower urinary tract infection;
  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer, neurogenic bladder, urethral malformation or stricture and severe neurosis;
  • For patients with local pain as the main manifestation, attention should be paid to the exclusion of other lesions in the lower abdomen, perineum, lsosacral sites, such as ureteral calculi, bladder calculi, inguinal hernia, pubis, varicocele, epididymitis, rectocolic diseases, lsodorsal myofascitis, etc.;
  • Complicated with heart, brain, liver and hematopoietic system and other serious primary diseases, local skin infection or skin lesions in the treatment site;
  • People who have metal implants in their bodies cannot cooperate, such as patients with mental illness.
  • People who are allergic to the treatment of electrical stimulation or allergic to a variety of drugs.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

Electrophysiological treatment group

Regular treatment group

Arm Description

Two electrodes covered the two acupoints of Zhongliao and Huiyang, one electrode covered the three acupoints of Zhongji, Guanyuan and Qihai, and two skin paste electrodes covered the three acupoints of Sanyinjiao, and connected the electric stimulation therapy instrument for 30 minutes. The intensity was based on the patient's tolerance. 4 weeks before the course of treatment, the treatment was performed once a day, 3 times a week.In the last 4 weeks, 20 times were performed twice a week.Fluoroquinolones and alpha blockers were administered according to the patient's symptoms.

Fluoroquinolones and alpha blockers were administered according to the patient's symptoms.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

National Institutes of Health-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index(NIH-CPSI)
Improvement rate = [(score before treatment - score at the end of treatment)/score before treatment] ×100% The improvement rate ≥75% was considered to be significant.The improvement rate < 75% and ≥50% were considered to be better. The improvement rate < 50% and ≥25% were considered as average efficacy.The improvement rate < 25% indicates poor efficacy.

Secondary Outcome Measures

international prostate symptom score (IPSS)
The score improved significantly from baseline
