Abstract
Giriş: Fibromiyalji kronik yaygın vücut ağrısı, yorgunluk, uyku bozukluğu, multiple problemlerle karakterize kronik bir kas iskelet
sistemi hastalığıdır. Akupunktur fibromiyaljide yaygın olarak kullanılan tedavi yöntemidir. Çalışmamızın amacı akupunkturun ağrı ve
yorgunluk üzerine etkisini değerlendirmektir.
Materyal-Metod: Yaş ortalamaları 47,66±7,55 olan 15 hastaya 2 ay toplam 12 seans akupunktur tedavisi uygulandı. Ağrıyı değerlendirmek
için VAS (Vizüel Ağrı Skalası) ve yorgunluğu değerlendirmek için Yorgunluk Şiddet Ölçeği tedavi öncesi ve tedavi sonrası uygulandı.
Bulgular: Tedavi öncesi ile karşılaştırıldığında tedavi sonrası VAS ve Yorgunluk Şiddet Ölçeğinde anlamlı değişiklik gözlendi (P
<0.005). Tedavi sırasında herhangi bir yan etkiye rastlamadı.
Sonuç: Akupunkturun fibromiyalji’de ağrı ve yorgunluk üzerine etkili olduğunu düşünmekteyiz.

Abstract
Introduction: Fibromyalgia is a chronic musculoskeletal disease characterized by chronic diffuse body pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance
and multiple problems.
Acupuncture is a common treatment modality for fibromyalgia. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of acupuncture on
pain and fatigue.
Material and Method: 15 patients with a mean age of 46,16 ± 6,55 received 12 sessions of acupuncture treatment for 2 months.
To evaluate the pain VAS (Visual Pain Scale) and to evaluate the fatigue Fatigue Severity Scale were administered before and after
the treatment.
Results: There was a significant change in VAS and Fatigue Severity Scale after treatment compared to pre-treatment (P <0.005).
There were no side effects during treatment.
Conclusion: We think that acupuncture is effective on pain and fatigue in fibromyalgia.
