Acupoint TENS vs Resistance Training for Iron Deficiency Anemia

2026년 5월 18일 업데이트: Dina Ebrahim Mohamed Aboshady, Cairo University

Effect of Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation Versus Resistance Exercise on Hemoglobin Level in Women With Iron Deficiency Anemia

The current study is designed to compare between the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation and resistance exercises on hemoglobin level in women with iron deficiency anemia.The design of this study will be a randomized controlled trial (RCT) pretest post-test assessment.Sixty women diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia will be recruited in this study from Kafrelshiekh University Hospital, Kafrelshiekh Governorate, Egypt. Their ages will be ranged from 20 to 30 years old, and they will be randomly divided into three equal (n= 20) groups. Change in hemoglobin concentration (g/dL) after the intervention period and changes in RBC count, MCV, MCH, RDW, serum ferritin, fatigue level, and functional exercise capacity after treatment will be measured.

상세 설명

Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is one of the most common nutritional disorders among women and is associated with fatigue, weakness, reduced physical performance, and impaired quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions such as Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) applied on acupuncture points such as gall bladder 39 and spleen 6 and resistance exercise may help improve circulation, stimulate physiological responses, and support hemoglobin production.This study is randomized controlled trial (RCT) pretest post test assessment aimed to compare the effects of acupoint TENS and resistance exercise on hemoglobin levels in women with iron deficiency anemia.Sixty women diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia will be recruited in this study . Their ages will be ranged from 20 to 30 years old, and they will be randomly divided into three equal (n= 20) groups as following:

  1. Study group (A) includes 20 women who will receive acupuncture transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (Acu-TENS) in addition to routine medical treatment program.
  2. Study group (B) includes 20 women who will undergo resistance exercise training in addition to routine medical treatment program.
  3. Control group (C) includes 20 women who will receive routine medical treatment program only.

The treatment program will be applied once per day, three times per week for 12 consecutive weeks.

  • Severe anemia (hemoglobin < 8.0 g/dL)
  • History of chronic kidney disease, liver disease, or malignancy.

실험적: Study group (A)
Study group (A) includes 20 women with iron deficiency anemia who will receive acupuncture transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (Acu-TENS) in addition to a routine medical treatment program.
장치: Acupuncture transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (Acu-TENS)
This technique will be applied to the study group (A) only as follow: In the Acu-TENS group, electrodes of the TENS device will be applied over bilateral gall bladder 39 (on the lateral aspect of the lower leg, 3 cun above the tip of the external malleolus, on the anterior border of the fibula) and spleen 6 (a width of four fingers above the medial malleolus on the posterior border of the tibia)
의약품: Ferrous Sulfate
Oral iron supplementation using ferrous sulfate 325 mg (approximately 65 mg elemental iron) administered as a single morning dose, preferably on alternate days, to optimize iron absorption and minimize gastrointestinal side effects based on current clinical recommendations.
행동: Iron-rich diet with vitamin C
Dietary intervention including increased intake of iron-rich foods (such as red meat and legumes) along with vitamin C-rich foods (such as citrus fruits) to enhance iron absorption.
