Abstract: ObjectiveTo observe the therapeutic effects of bed intermittent traction and sitting sustained traction on cervical spondylosis.Methods64 patients were randomly divided into two groups, bed intermittent traction group(n=32)and sitting sustained traction group(n=32). Patients were treated with bed intermittent traction and sitting sustained traction combined with medium frequency electrostimulation. After the treatment, the therapeutic effects were assessed and compared. ResultsThe rate of very efficiency and efficiency of two groups was 59.38%, 96.88% and 46.88%, 93.75%, there was no significant difference in two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionsThe bed intermittent traction and the sitting sustained traction are efficiency for treating the cervical spondylosis.

Key words: cervical spondylosis, bed intermittent traction, sitting sustained traction
