得气是传统针灸理论的重要组成部分,是决定针刺临床疗效的重要因素。结合现代临床研究,笔者就得气的指征、得气与临床疗效的相关性及其作用机制进行了归纳和总结。目前得气研究存在的主观性比较大,如何以一种客观量化的标准来衡量得气状态是目前针刺得气研究中的关键问题,脑功能成像技术可能成为得气客观化研究中新的技术手段。
Arrival of qi, an important component of traditional theory of acupuncture and moxibustion, is the Key factor in determining clinical therapeutic effect of acupuncture. The authors summarize the indication of qi-arrival, correlativity of qi-arrival with clinical therapeutic effect and its action mechanism through reviewing modern clinical research. At present, there is more subjective in the study on qi-arrival so the key problem in research on qi-arrival is how the qi-arrival state is measured by an objective quantization standard. The cerebral function imaging, a new technique, may be used in objectification research on qi-arrival.
