초록

본 연구는 건강한 성인남녀를 대상으로 경혈지점에 은침전기자극과 침형 경피신경전기자극을 적용하여 혈류량과 통증 역치에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 성인남녀 32명을 대상으로 SSP group (n=18), A-TENS group (n=14)으로 무작위 배정하여 적용하였다. 혈류량을 측정하기 위해 레이저 도플러 영상을 사용하였고, 통증 역치를 측정하기 위해 압통측정기를 사용하였다. 집단 내 혈류량의 변화는 두 그룹 사이에서 유의한 차이가 있었고(p<0.05), 압통 역치의 변화는 SSP group에서만 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 중재 후 집단 간 혈류량과 압통 역치의 변화에서는 SSP group과 TENS group 사이에서 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 결과적으로 경혈지점에 SSP와 A-TENS을 적용한 결과 혈류량과 압통 역치의 변화가 있었으며, 특히 SSP을 경혈지점에 적용할 때 더욱 큰 변화를 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 경혈과 전기자극치료의 융합이 다양한 환자를 위한 방법의 하나로 유용하게 적용할 수 있으며, 지속적인 융합중재개발이 필요하다.

This study examined how the application of silver spike point (SSP) and acupuncture-like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (A-TENS) on acupoints affects blood flow and pain threshold, using laser Doppler blood fluxes and the Commander algometer. Our study included 32 healthy men and women who were randomly divided into the SSP group (n=18) and the A-TENS group (n=14). The pain threshold and blood flow were measured at the Neiguan (PC6) of the Jueyin Pericardium Meridian of the hand. SSP was performed with a 2.8cm electrode at a fixed frequency of 3 Hz for 15 minutes. The change in blood flow and pain threshold after the intervention significantly differed between the two groups (p<0.05). We found that the application of SSP and A-TENS on an acupoint altered their blood flow and pressure pain threshold, with SSP resulting in significantly greater change than A-TENS. Based on these results, the convergence of acupoint and electrical stimulation therapy can be usefully applied as a method for various patients. Continued development of convergence interventions is necessary.
