Acupressure benefits dialysis patients
Acupressure can decrease thirst and improve quality of life in patients receiving haemodialysis treatment, according to a study carried out in Turkey. Fifty dialysis patients were randomised into intervention and control groups. In the intervention group, acupressure was applied to five acupoints (Lianquan REN-23 and bilateral Yifeng SJ-17 and Yongquan KID-1) using an acupressure device, during the first half of their dialysis sessions for three days per week, over a six week period. Acupressure treatment was found to increase the amount of saliva, decrease the severity of thirst and positively affect patients’ quality of life.
