목적 : 심박수 변이도(Heart Rate Variability. HRV)를 통해 사암침법 치료법 중 심신 질환에 많이 적용되는 심정격 자침법과 자율신경계와의 관계를 살펴보고자 하였다. 방법 : 2006년 5월 1일부터 2006년 6월 31일까지 2개월간 특별한 과거력이 없는 건강인을 대상으로 실험군 37명을 사암침법 심정격을 자침하고 시술 전후에 HRV를 측정하여 별무처치 상태로 안정을 취한 후 측정한 대조군 21명과 비교하였다. 결과로 얻은 MHRT, SDNN, RMSSD, TP, LF, HF, LF/HF ratio 등의 수치 변화를 비교해 기록 시간 동안의 평균 심박수, 외부 스트레스에 대한 심박동의 변화상태, 심장에 관여하는 자율신경 중 부교감신경의 활동, 교감신경과 부교감신경의 균형 상태 등을 분석하였다. 결과 1. MHRT는 실험군에서 유의성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 2. SDNN는 실험군 대조군 모두 통계적인 유의성이 없었다. 3. RMSSD은 실험군 대조군 모두 통계적인 유의성이 없었다. 4. TP는 실험군 대조군 모두 통계적인 유의성이 없었다. 5. LF, HF은 실험군 대조군 모두 통계적인 유의성이 없었다. 6. LF/HF ratio는 실험군에서 유의성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론 : 부교감신경과 교감신경의 비교 지표로 다용되는 LF/HF ratio가 유의한 차이를 보여 심정격 자침이 자율신경계의 항진을 완화시키는 것으로 사료된다. 향후 환자의 병인과 상태에 따라 실증과 허증으로 구분하여 시술하는 등의 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of Simjeongkyeok Sa-am acupuncture treatment for major symptoms of Hwa-byung. Method : In this randomized, single blind, placebo-controlled study, we compared Simjeongkyeok acupuncture with Sham acupuncture in the treatment for major symptoms of Hwa-byung. Likert scale for major symptom of Hwa-byung was measured as the 1st evaluative instrument, and STAXI-K, STAI-K, BDI-K and HRV were also measured as the 2nd evaluative instrument at the before treatment and after treatment. Results : In comparison of Likert scale for major symptoms, total score of after treatment decreased significantly at each point on both groups, but there was no significant difference between both groups. In comparison of STAXI-K, STAI-K, BDI-K, there was no significant difference in variation of score between both groups. But Simjeongkyeok group showed higher ratio variation of STAXI expression than that of Sham group, Also on subjects whose main complaint symptom were burning sensation and whose pattern identification were Qizhi, Simjeongkyeok group showed higher variation of Likert scale score and BDI-K than that of Sham group. The significance was border line around. Conclusion : We considered that Shimjeongkeok treatment will he likely to he recommended for treating Hwa-byung, especially on subjects in each group whose main complaint symptom were burning sensation or whose pattern identification were Qizhi. Also it may also be effective on the management of anger expression.
