Abstract

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate recent clinical studies on the effect of acupuncture on hearing loss. Methods : Based on the PubMed search with the key search terms of 'hearing loss, acupuncture', dated from 2004 to 2017, 1 controlled trials, 3 case reports and 3 case series was found, and were analyzed for this study. Results : 1. The most commonly used acupoints were Shuaigu(GB8) and Fengchi(GB20). 2. The most commonly used meridians were the du channel, the gall bladder meridian of foot-shaoyang, and the triple bunner meridian of hand shaoyang. 3. Acupuncture treatment was effective for conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, especially sudden sensory neural hearing loss. 4. More clinical studies are needed to prove the effectiveness of the acupuncture on hearing loss. To be more objective on the study results, we can measure auditory brainstem response for hearing loss after acupuncture treatment.
