Impact of Semi-Permanent Auricular Acupuncture on Autonomic Balance and Pressure Pain Threshold in Patients With Fibromyalgia: A Longitudinal Study
This longitudinal study evaluates the effects of semi-permanent auricular acupuncture on the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) activity and pressure pain threshold in adult female patients (aged 35-64) diagnosed with Fibromyalgia according to the 2016 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria.
The study aims to investigate how a 5-week treatment cycle influences cardiac autonomic regulation and pain sensitivity

详细说明
Participants will undergo a series of 5 weekly sessions of auricular acupuncture using semi-permanent needles (Pyonex Seirin 0.9 mm).
The needles will be applied to specific auricular points: Point Zero, Shen Men, Thalamus, and Master Cerebral Point.
Each application will last for 72 hours, with the patient performing the removal

Change from Baseline in Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) Balance via LF/HF Ratio
大体时间:Baseline (T0), Week 1 (T1), Week 2 (T2), Week 3 (T3), Week 4 (T4), and Follow-up at Week 8 (T5).
|
Evaluated through Photoplethysmography (PPG) using the PPG Stress Flow device.
The autonomic nervous system balance is expressed specifically by the Low Frequency to High Frequency (LF/HF) ratio.
Other spectral parameters (SDNN and HF power) are collected simultaneously to support the comprehensive Heart Rate Variability (HRV) analysis.
All measurements are taken immediately before each acupuncture session.

Change from baseline in Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT)
大体时间:Baseline (T0), Week 2 (T2), Week 4 (T4), and Week 8 (T5)

Measured using the Force Ten FPX 25 Algometer to determine the minimum pressure perceived as painful.
Measurements are taken at three specific body points: Trapezius (GB21), Lateral Epicondyle (LI11), and below the knee (ST36).
