"Penyakit Paru Obstruktif Kronik (PPOK) kini telah menjadi penyebab kematian terbanyak keempat di dunia. Masih tingginya angka mortalitas pada tatalaksana PPOK mengharuskan pengembangan modalitas terapi yang terus-menerus. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh terapi kombinasi akupunktur tanam benang dan medikamentosa terhadap indeks BODE pasien PPOK. Uji klinis acak tersamar ganda dengan pembanding dilakukan terhadap 48 pasien yang dialokasikan ke dalam kelompok kasus (kombinasi akupunktur tanam benang dan medikamentosa) atau kelompok kontrol (kelompok akupunktur sham dan medikamentosa). Akupunktur tanam benang dilakukan pada titik BL13 Feishu, BL43 Gaohuangshu, BL20 Pishu, BL23 Shenshu dan ST40 Fenglong sebanyak 2 kali dengan interval 15 hari. Indeks BODE sebagai keluaran primer dinilai pada hari ke-1 dan hari ke-30. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perbedaan yang bermakna secara statistik maupun klinis antar kedua kelompok. Rerata penurunan indeks BODE 1,83 lebih rendah pada kelompok kasus dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (p =0,000). Disimpulkan bahwa terapi kombinasi akupunktur tanam benang dan medikamentosa lebih efektif menurunkan Indeks BODE dibandingkan dengan medikamentosa saja.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is now becoming the fourth leading cause of death in the world. Since high level of mortality following COPD medication, continous research to improve treatment modalities keeps on progressing. This study aimed to establish the effect of acupoint-catgut embedment combined with medical treatment on BODE index of COPD patient. A double blind randomized controlled trial has been conducted on 48 patient allocated into acupoint-catgut embedment with medication group (case group) or sham acupuncture with medication group (control group). Acupoint-catgut embedment was done on BL13 Feishu, BL43 Gaohuangshu, BL20 Pishu, BL23 Shenshu and ST40 Fenglong, 2 times with interval 15 days. BODE index as primary outcome was assessed on day-1 and day-30. The result shown statistically and clinically important difference between groups. BODE index was reduced 1,83 point lower in case group (p = 0,000). By that result, acupoint-catgut embedment combined with medical treatment is concluded more effective than medical treatment solely in reducing BODE index."

"Nyeri punggung bawah (NPB) adalah nyeri yang dirasakan di daerah punggung bagian bawah. NPB merupakan masalah kesehatan utama di masyarakat modern. 70 - 85% populasi akan mengalami NPB pada masa kehidupan mereka. Beberapa penelitian, tinjauan sistematis dan metaanalisis menunjukkan bahwa akupunktur dapat menghilangkan atau mengurangi rasa nyeri pada NPB. Banyak metode dan teknik rangsang yang digunakan dalam akupunktur, salah satunya adalah akupunktur pergelangan tangan dan pergelangan kaki. Teknik akupunktur ini mempunyai kelebihan yaitu meminimalkan penggunaan jumlah jarum dan rasa tak nyaman akibat sensasi penjaruman. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh akupunktur pergelangan tangan dan pergelangan kaki terhadap skor NAS (Numeric Analog Scale) pada pasien NPB. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah uji klinis acak tersamar tunggal dengan kontrol. Penelitian ini melibatkan 42 pasien NPB yang dibagi menjadi 2 kelompok yaitu kelompok kontrol (n=21) yang dilakukan akupunktur tubuh dan kelompok perlakuan (n=21 yang dilakukan akupunktur pergelangan tangan dan pergelangan kaki.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terjadi penurunan skor NAS yang signifikan pada kedua kelompok setelah terapi ke-3 dan ke-6. Perubahan skor NAS setelah terapi ke-3 pada kelompok perlakuan tidak berbeda bermakna bila dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (p=0.319). Perubahan skor NAS setelah terapi ke-6 pada kelompok perlakuan berbeda bermakna bila dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (p=0.041). Kesimpulan penelitian ini adalah akupunktur pergelangan tangan dan pergelangan kaki memiliki pengaruh terhadap skor NAS secara signifikan.

Low back pain (LBP) is pain felt in the lower back area. NPB is a major health problem in modern society. 70-85% of the population will experience low back pain during their lives. Some studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyzes have shown that acupuncture can eliminate or reduce pain in LBP. Many methods and stimulation techniques used in acupuncture, one of which is wrist and ankle acupuncture. This technique has the advantage of minimizing the use of the number of needles and discomfort due to the pricking sensation.

This study aimed to determine the effect of wrist and ankle acupuncture to the NAS scores (Numeric Analog Scale) in patients with low back pain. The study design used was a single-blind randomized clinical trial with control. The study involved 42 patients with low back pain who were divided into 2 groups: control group (n = 21) were carried out body acupuncture and treatment group (n = 2) were carried out wrist and ankle acupuncture.

The results showed a decline in the NAS scores significantly in both group after the 3rd and 6th therapy. Changes in the NAS score after 3rd therapy in the treatment group was not significantly different when compared with the control group (p = 0.319). Changes in the NAS score after 6th therapy in the treatment group was significantly different when compared with the control group (p = 0.041). Conclusion of this study is wrist and ankle acupuncture have an effect on the NAS scores significantly."

"[ABSTRAKUremik pruritus masih menjadi masalah dan mengurangi kualitas hidup pada pasien hemodialisis, meskipun telah banyak kemajuan dalam teknik dialisis, serta terapi yang ada belum memberikan hasil yang maksimal. Terapi akupunktur dapat dikembangkan sebagai terapi pendamping pada terapi hemodialisis untuk mengurangi gejala uremik pruritus. Penelitiasn ini merupakan penelitian akupunktur pertama di Indonesia dengan subyek pasien hemodialisis. Tiga puluh tujuh pasien hemodialisis dengan uremik pruritus dibagi dalam dua kelompok secara acak, kelompok akupunktur (n=18) mendapat terapi akupunktur pada titik tunggal LI11 Quchi, sementara kelompok kontrol (n=19) mengunakan jarum plasebo The Park Sham Device. Terapi akupunktur dilakukan saat hemodialisis, seminggu dua kali sebanyak 12 kali. Skor pruritus dinilai menggunakan kuesioner pruritus 5D sebelum terapi, setelah terapi ke-4, ke-8 dan setelah terapi ke-12, serta penilaian lanjutan 4 dan 8 minggu setelah terapi selesai. Perbedaan bermakna skor pruritus 5D antara kelompok akupunktur dan kelompok kontrol terjadi setelah akhir terapi akupunktur (7,89±0,832 vs 10,63±3,166; p=0,003) dan penilaian lanjutan 4 minggu setelah terapi selesai(8,06±1,830 vs 10,95±3,341; p=0,001). Terapi akupunktur efektif menurunkan skor uremik pruritus pada pasien hemodialisis yang menjalani dialisis seminggu dua kali.

ABSTRACTUremic pruritus still gives problems for hemodialysis patients especially to reducing their quality of life, although it has been many advancements in dialysis techniques, recent therapies not yet provide optimum results. Acupuncture has a role as a complement in hemodialysis therapy to alleviate the symptoms of uremic pruritus in hemodialysis patients. This study is the first acupuncture research in Indonesia with the subject of hemodialysis patients. Thirty-seven hemodialysis patients with uremic pruritus were divided randomly into two groups, the acupuncture group (n = 18) received acupuncture treatment at a single point LI11 Quchi, while the control group (n = 19) using a placebo needle The Park Sham Device. Acupuncture treatment was done simultaneously with hemodialysis therapy, twice a week for 12 times. The pruritus scores was assessed using a 5D pruritus questionnaire before treatment, after 4th, 8th, 12th acupuncture treatment and at 4 and 8 weeks follow up. Significant differences 5D pruritus scores between the acupuncture group and the control group occurred after the end of acupuncture treatment (7.89±0.832 vs 10.63±3.166; p = 0.003) and at 4 weeks follow up (8.06±1.830 vs. 10.95±3.341; p = 0.001).
