Abstract
Objectives : The purpose of this study is to 1) measure the skin resistance of jeong-acupuncture points using the compound electrodes, 2) develop a database of the skin resistance based on age, gender.Methods : The skin resistance of jeong-acupuncture points on hands and feet were measured using a specially designed compound electrode from 191 healthy volunteers. A constant current of 5μA was applied to the measurement points and the skin resistance was obtained using amplifier, A/D convertor and acqknowledge software program.Results : 1) ANOVA statistical analysis showed no significant differences between jeong-acupuncture points on hands and feet. 2) Paired sample`s t-test showed no significant differences between Yin-Yang meridian points. 3) When the data were sorted by gender, the factor analysis showed statistically significant differences between male and female groups in all measured points except for left foot. 4) Based on the factor analysis a significant relationship between the skin resistance and age was found in feet. However no relationship was found in hands.Conclusions : There is differences in skin resistance according to sex, age. Further clinical research is necessary using compound electrode method._____________
