The Study On The Correlation Between Insomnia And Auricular Positive Point

ObjectiveThis research mainly through the auricular positive point of each syndrome type clinical observation of non organic insomnia, auricular point distribution of positive preliminary observation of the syndrome of insomnia and summarizes the laws, to further explore whether the syndromes of TCM syndromes and auricular point has positive correlation, and the point of auricular points on the cards type insomnia whether it has auxiliary diagnostic value, in order to further expand the clinical treatment of the disease ideas.MethodsThis study selected during the period of 2014 January to 2015 March in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine and Guangdong Province Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital outpatients or inpatients which met the inclusion criteria of insomnia patients, according to their respective syndromes were divided into five groups.At the same time for each group of patients with binaural ear acupoint detection, under natural light, the auricle was tested directly observed, see there is no deformation or discoloration signs, such as there is to remember the corresponding point area is positive; wipe the auricle with cotton ball or water wet bar, ear dry and then probe; when the reference point after a good tune, with the detector in person ear areas tested paddling, consistent with force, metal head scale 2 lattice as the standard.Detection angle. Detection in order along the helix-scapha-antihelix-triangular fossa and cavity of concha cymba concha -- on tragus-tragus-earlobe-ear in turn with a uniform intensity detection, detection method using point pressure method and linear combination of paddling method. When a patient has obvious pain or indicating the red light is recorded as positive, recorded on both sides ear areas all showed positive reaction points, each point of 3 measurements, when the positive index is more than 2 times when recorded as positive.Experimental study on end, after data collection, according to the observed values, negative index 0 points in mind, positive index 1 points in mind. The use of SPSS19.0 statistical analysis data. Measurement data using t test,2 test was used to count data, p for the two-sided test, p<0.05 had significant difference, p<0.01 is a very significant difference.ResultsThe 300 cases of insomnia patients with auricular point study, positive percentage of ear in 60% above are the heart (61.3%), triple burner (67%), subcortical (69.7%), internal genital organs (71.3%), Shenmen (92%).Each case the proportion of men and women, age, binaural ears showed no statistical significance compared.Among them, p was statistically less than 0.05 ear with statistical significance, the results are as follows:depression of the liver generates pathogenic fire certificate for auricular liver, pancreas, liver, the back ear of liver; top of the ear;interior disturbance of phlegm-heat is large intestine and thoracic vertebra;hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency:bladder;the deficiency of both heart and spleen:the back ear of spleen, spleen, and stomach;infantile palpitation with syndrome of heart deficiency and timidity:temple.ConclusionHigh frequency ear auricular heart positive, triple burner, subcortical, inside genital, Shenmen for insomnia. According to the data analysis, the detection of various syndromes of the results are as follows:the auricular liver, pancreas, the back ear of liver and top of the ear related depression of the liver generates pathogenic fire; auricular large intestine and thoracic vertebra related interior disturbance of phlegm-heat; auricular bladder related hyperactivity of fire due to yin deficiency;the back ear of spleen, spleen, and stomach related the deficiency of both heart and spleen; auricular temple related infantile palpitation with syndrome of heart deficiency and timidity.The study of auricular point correlation between positive in 300 patients with insomnia, have certain auxiliary function of cause of disease and the type analysis, have the certain instruction significance to the clinical point selection in auricular plaster therapy in treating insomnia. Aims to provide some basis for the clinical treatment using auricular acupoints, and provide ideas. In the future according to the results of this study selected for study the clinical curative effect of ear acupoint, further deepen the topic.
