2017年11月9日 更新者:Eun Jung Kim
The Efficacy and Safety of Cettum for Perennial Allergic Rhinitis: a Randomized, Open-label, Assessment-blind, Parallel Designed Pilot Clinical Study
The purpose of this study is verify the efficacy and safety of Cettum (Electrical moxibustion) for patients with perennial allergic rhinitis.
研究概览
详细说明
The investigators target the patients with perennial allergic rhinitis.
After treatment in 2 groups (Cettum treatment and acupuncture treatment) the investigators will compare the effects of relieving symptoms and improving quality of life.

TNSS evaluates symptoms of rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching and sneezing on a 4-point scale.
The total score range is from 0 to 12, where 0 = no symptoms, 1 = mild symptom(s), 2 = moderate symptom (s), and 3 = severe symptom(s).
TNSS baseline value will be measured prior to the start of the experiment and then again during every visit.
