De qi is a core concept of acupuncture and is necessary to produce therapeutic effect. In 2010, de qi has been received as a term in the official extension of the CONSORT Statement. However, there are few articles that discuss which factors have influences on obtaining de qi in clinical trials. This paper aims to explore these factors and give advice on trial design in order to optimize de qi in acupuncture RCTs.
“得气”是针灸的核心概念,是产生治疗效果的必要条件。2010 年,“得气”被纳入 CONSORT 声明的正式扩展术语。然而,目前很少有文章探讨哪些因素会影响临床试验中“得气”的获得。本文旨在探讨这些因素,并就临床试验设计提出建议,以优化针灸 RCT 中的“得气”。
