randomized clinical trial aimed at evaluating the auriculotherapy in reducing stress levels in 75 nursing professionals and analyze the coping domains that have changed after treatment.
volunteers were divided into 3 groups (Control, Needles and Seeds) and received eight sessions at Shenmen, Kidney and Brainstem points. The Control Group didn't receive any intervention.
ANOVA test showed statistical differences in stress levels for Needle/Control Groups in the third and fourth assessments, according to Stress Symptoms List when compared the three groups in four assessments. For the Inventory of Folkman/Lazarus, a significant difference was obtained for Spacing domain between needle/control. In analysis within the same group, differences were found for Confrontation in fourth assessment between Needle/Control Groups and for Social Support in the third one between Seeds/Control Groups.
The auriculotherapy decreased stress levels, changed Coping domains after treatment, suggesting that both Auriculotherapy with needles and seeds can produce positive impact to improve strategy Coping in the nursing team. However, more studies are needed to conceive the extent of the technique.
一项随机临床试验,旨在评估耳穴疗法对75名护理专业人员应激水平的影响,并分析治疗后发生变化的应对领域。
将志愿者分为3组(对照组、针刺组和籽贴组),在神门、肾和脑干穴位接受8次治疗。对照组未接受任何干预。
方差分析显示,在四次评估中比较三组时,根据应激症状清单,针刺组/对照组在第三次和第四次评估中的应激水平存在统计学差异。对于福克曼/拉扎勒斯量表,针刺组/对照组在“间隔”领域存在显著差异。在同一组内分析中,针刺组/对照组在第四次评估中的“对抗”方面存在差异,籽贴组/对照组在第三次评估中的“社会支持”方面存在差异。
耳穴疗法可降低应激水平,治疗后改变应对领域,表明针刺和籽贴耳穴疗法均可对改善护理团队的应对策略产生积极影响。然而,需要更多研究来确定该技术的作用程度。
