초록

Objectives: This study reviewed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effects of Neiguan (PC6) stimulation on blood pressure and suggests a better research process. Methods: We searched for RCTs for effects of Neiguan (PC6) stimulations on blood pressure published until July 2024 using six databases (PubMed, Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), Korea Citation Index (KCI), Research Information Service System (RISS), Korean Studies Information Service System (KISS), and Science ON). In total, eight RCTs that met all the inclusion criteria were selected. Results: All the selected studies showed significant effects of Neiguan (PC6) stimulation on blood pressure. In most studies, Neiguan (PC6) stimulation was effective in stabilizing blood pressure and improving various indicators related to blood pressure. Conclusion: Neiguan (PC6) stimulation is an effective treatment for stabilizing blood pressure. However, the selected RCTs were short-term studies and had small number of subjects; so, long-term and large-scale studies are needed.
