摘要: | The aims of this study were to investigate (i) if and when the blood pressure would rise or fall and (ii) the associated changes of human heart rate variability (HRV) by manual stimulation of the Neiguan (PC 6) acupuncture site. In this paper, two groups of six healthy male volunteers with ranges of ages 20-56 and 20-55 and with no neurological diseases participated in this study. In order to minimize artefacts, the electrocardiogram (ECG) and radial arterial pulse pressure wave were collected with the subjects alert but eyes closed before, during, and after sham/manual acupuncture. No statistically significant changes (P > 0.05) were found in the sham acupuncture group. As for the manual acupuncture group, the needle was inserted into the PC 6 acupoint and manually stimulated about 15 to 30 seconds to achieve De Qi sensation. Needles were left in place for 30 min and then removed. Analysis of the data due to acupuncture was then compared with the baseline values. Results indicate that the blood pressures of different subject can either rise (P < 0.01) or fall (P < 0.01). To further determine the indicator for one subject who exhibited both rise and fall of blood pressures, 7 more trials were given conducted with the same protocol until statistically significant results were obtained (P < 0.01). We found that his change of blood pressure was highly correlated (p = -0.94 and -0.99 for rise and fall, respectively) with the ratio of the magnitude of pulse pressure to that of the dicrotic notch in the local radial pulse wave (P < 0.01). As to the heart rate variability (HRV) spectra, significant changes in the low frequency (LF) and very low frequency (VLF) ranges were also detected. These results indicate that the autonomic innervations of heart have been modified. However, the information on the power of LF, high frequency (HF), and LF/HF of HRV are not conclusive to statistically differentiate the sympathetic contribution from that of the parasympathetic nervous systems at present stage. ? 2008 by The Chinese Physiological Society. |
