Results

The present study suggest that acupuncture may reduce the BP and HR of patients with mild hypertension ; the results of the heart rate variability (HRV)analysis suggest that basal cardiac sympathetic nerve activity(CSNA) is enhanced in patients with mild hypertension, which may be suppresses CSNA but also increases vagal nerve activity.

Adverse events

No adverse events

Outcome measures

SBP and HF significantly decreased in the patient group during and after acupuncture compared with baseline values(p<0.05). SBP was significantly different between the two groups(p<0.05). HRV analysis showed that LF/HF was significantly reduced during acupuncture (p<0.05) and HF was significantly increased after acupuncture (p<0.05) in the patient group.
