PENGARUH AKUPUNKTUR TITIK BAIHUI (GV20) DAN
ELEKTROAKUPUNKTUR TITIK ZUSANLI (ST36) TERHADAP
JUMLAH LEUKOSIT TIKUS PUTIH (Rattus novergicus) MODEL STRES AKIBAT BISING INTERMITEN KRONIK
Background: To know effect of acupuncture Baihui (GV20) and
electroacupuncture Zusanli (ST36) against WBC level white rats model stress
result intermittent chronic noise.
Methods: This study was an experimental with pre and post test group design.
Subjects were 32 male white rats (Rattus norvegicus) wistar strain samples and
grouped into 2 groups, the noise group (KB) were treated with chronic
intermittent noise induced, acupuncture noise group (KBA) were treated with
chronic intermittent noise induced and acupuncture Baihui (GV 20) and
electroacupuncture Zusanli (ST36). Subjects was treated for 28 days. The
collected data were analyzed using Independent samples T-test, Paired-samples T
test, alternative test with Wilcoxon test, and Mann-whitney test.
Results: Mean KB (pre test), KB (post test), KBA (pre test), and KBA (post
test) were 12.952,50 ± 2.845,52/uL; 8.151,88 ± 1.978,19/uL; 12.493,13 ±
2.584,90/uL; and 8.942,50 ± 2.591,93/uL. The result of statistically showed that
there was a significant difference of white blood cell count between KB (pre test)
– KB (post test) dan KBA (pre test) – KBA (post test) and no significant between
KB(pre test) – KBA (pre test) dan KB (post test) – KBA (post test).
Conclusion: There was no effect of acupuncture Baihui (GV20) and
electroacupuncture Zusanli (ST36) against WBC level white rats model stress
result intermittent chronic noise.
