Abstract

Purpose: We intended to researched the relations between abdominal temperature and leukorrhea. Methods: We selected the 26 leukorrhea patients and 17 control group. We measured 4 points abdominal temperature (Chung-wan(CV12), Kwan-won(CV4), Gui-rae(ST29)) by DITI. We checked the difference of temperature between CV12, CV4, ST29 of leukorrhea group and control group. And we checked the difference of temperature between CV12 and CV4 / Lt. ST29 and Rt. ST29 / CV12 and Lt. ST29 / CV12 and Rt. ST29 / CV4 and Lt. ST29 / CV4 and Rt. ST29. For statistics, we used Mann-Whitney test, SPSS 12.0 for windows. Results: The difference of temperature between CV12, CV4 and ST29 which are abdomen shows statistically insignificant result in this study. But, the difference of temperature between (${\Delta}T$) CV4 and Rt. ST29 which are abdomen shows statistically significant result. Conclusion: The leukorrhea patients show higher temperature CV12, CV4 and ST29 than control group. In lower abdomen, the temperature between leukorrhea and control group shows little difference.
