IRCT20180206038637N1 IRCT 2018-02-17 Babol University of Medical Sciences Evaluation of acupressure on nausea and vomiting of pregnancy A comparison of the effect of pressure on the KID21( Youmen) and P6 (Neiguan) points on the severity of nausea and vomiting pregnancy 2018-01-20 anticipated 80 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/29469 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: Acupressure is preferred over drug therapy for treating NVP (1). The most effective and practical point in acupressure for treating nausea and vomiting is Neiguan P6. This point is approximately three finger breadths (4 cm) above the first transverse crease on the hand wrist between the flexor carpi radials tendons. P6 stimulation has been reported to reduce NVP in many controlled clinical trials (2).Another point used to treat NVP based on scientific resources is KID21 or Youmen or the Hidden Gate. It is 6 Cun above the navel and 0.5 Cun symmetrically from the sides of the middle line of the abdomen. Simulating this point helps improve NVP. In controlled clinical trials, the stimulation of KID21 has reduced NVP (3).Acupressure is preferred over drug therapy for treating NVP (1).

N/A Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy. Intervention 1: Intervention group 1: Pressure on Kid21 (acupressure) that is 6 Cun above the navel and 0.5 Cun both sides of the midline is symmetrical. Intervention 2: Intervention group 2: Pressure on P6 (acupressure) that is 3 Cun above the China wrist between the two tendons on the palm of the hand above the long palmar and bending radius.
