观察疗效指标参考中国中医药管理局颁布的《中医病证诊断疗效标准，颈椎病的疗效评定》与姜宏等提出的《颈椎病疗效评定的研讨》，采用临床症状、体征和功能状态的临床评分20分法量表与疼痛分级指数（PRI）与现有疼痛强度（PPI）进行评定，而采用安全性评定。

1. 梅花针与快针综合疗法治疗神经根型颈椎病（风寒湿型）75例中的1个疗程后临床治愈为00.00%，显效为37.33%，好转为40.00%，无效为22.67%，总有效率为77.33%，2个疗程后临床治愈为36.00%，显效为38.67%，好转为20.00%，无效为5.33%，总有效率为94.67%，经卡方检验，x2=40.065，P<0.01，说明治疗2个疗程的总有效率显著高于治疗1个疗程。

2. after one period of treatment, of the 75 cases of combination therapy of the plum-blossom needle and the fast needle treatment for cervical spondylotic radiculopathy（Wind-cold-damp type）, the cured rate is 00.00%, obvious effective rate is 37.33%, the improvement rate is 40.00%, the invalid rate is 22.67%，the total effective rate is 77.33%; after two periods of treatment the cured rate is 36.00%，obvious effective rate is 38.67%，the improvement rate is 20.00%，the invalid rate is 5.33%，the total effective rate is 94.67%，according to chi-square test，x2=40.065，P<0.01，indicating that the total effective rate of two periods of treatment is higher than one period of treatment.

3. 梅花针与快针综合疗法治疗神经根型颈椎病（风寒湿型）的疗效测定采用临床症状、体征和功能状态的临床评分与疼痛分级指数（PRI）与现有疼痛强度（PPI）进行研究观察，经方差分析，治疗前、治疗1个疗程后、2个疗程后比较均有显著差异（P<0.01）。其中对恶风畏寒、上肢部疼痛与麻木疗效最高而快，但肩背部疼痛与麻木、头有沉重感疗效最低而慢。而进一步采用LSD方法进行两两比较发现：1个疗程后与治疗前比较P<0.05，有1个疗程后、2个疗程后与1个疗程后比较均有统计学意义（P<0.05），说明治疗前各项目得分显著低于治疗1个疗程，而治疗1个疗程的各项目得分又显著低于治疗2个疗程。但其中颈部僵硬，活动不利经比较治疗前得分与治疗1个疗程没有显著差别。
