Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to investigate on the nomenclature of acupoints for the Healthcare Terminology Standard. Methods: We investigated the name of acupoints in 『Standard Acupuncture Nomenclature (Second Edition)』 of WHO, 『WHO Standard Acupuncture Point Locations in The Western Pacific Region』, 『Principles of Meridians & Acupoints』, 『Details of Meridians & Acupoints』 and 『Acupuncture Medicine』. Results: In books, we found that the name of acupoints was used differently in LI19, TE22, HT3, SI8, ST16, SI16, GB16 and BL8 acupoints. Conclusions: 口禾髎(LI19), 耳和髎(TE22), 少海(HT3), 小海(SI8), 膺窗(ST16), 天窗(SI16), 目窗(GB16), 絡卻(BL8) and 淵腋(GB22) in confused acupoints have been established as the terms of acupoints for the Healthcare Terminology Standard.
