Abstract: | Eight-seven patients with different types of diseases were treated with acupuncture, and the changes of their blood pressure were investigated. The results showed that the total level of systolic pressure in the 87 cases decreased (P < 0.05). Especially, the systolic pressure in patients accompanied with hypertension decreased significantly. It is suggested that when acupuncture is adopted to treat other diseases, it can decrease the systolic pressure to a certain extent in patients accompanied with hypertension, but it does not exert significant influence on both systolic and diastolic pressure in patients with normal blood pressure. |
