The effectiveness of the "Sea Band" acupressure band compared with placebo and hyoscine (0.6 mg), also known as scopolamine, to increase tolerance to a laboratory nauseogenic cross-coupled motion challenge was assessed using 18 subjects. The results showed that the subjects had a significant increase in tolerance with hyoscine but had no increase in tolerance with the "Sea Band" or placebo. Possible reasons for the failure to show any significant protection from the use of these acupressure bands are insufficient movement of the wrist to provide continuous stimulation, and/or the likelihood that only a minority of the population would show non-negligible benefit as experience with medical acupressure would suggest. The application of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation may be worthy of study.
使用18名受试者评估了“海之环”指压带与安慰剂和东莨菪碱（0.6毫克，也称为莨菪胺）相比，在增加对实验室致恶心交叉耦合运动刺激耐受性方面的有效性。结果表明，使用东莨菪碱的受试者耐受性显著增加，但使用“海之环”或安慰剂的受试者耐受性没有增加。这些指压带未能显示出任何显著保护作用的可能原因是手腕运动不足无法提供持续刺激，和/或正如医学指压经验所表明的那样，只有少数人会显示出不可忽视的益处。经皮电神经刺激的应用可能值得研究。
