Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this research was to examine that effect of Sosang(LU1)-Eunbaek(SP1) bloodletting was similar to effect of Sa-kwan acupuncture on pain and discomfort of acute dyspepsia in upper abdomen .
Methods: We divided 36 patients with acute dyspepsia into two groups and treated Group A with Sosang(LU11)-Eunbaek(SP1) bloodletting and Group B with Sa-kwan acupuncture. Pain and discomfort in upper abdomen was measured by Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) scores of the two groups before treatment and after 15 minutes to treat.
Results: Both group A and B represented effective improvement in VAS of pain and discomfort in upper abdomen. And there was no difference between A group and B group statistically.
Conclusions: It is suggested that Sosang(LU11)-Eunbaek(SP1) bloodletting may have similar effect compared with Sa-kwan acupuncture on acute dyspepsia treatment.
