Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of hand massage through Korean hand acupuncture therapy on nausea, vomiting and anorexia induced by chemotherapy in cancer patients.
Method: Subjects consisted of 40 patients with cancer who were hospitalized and had chemotherapy at D university hospital in D city, Korea. These subjects were assigned randomly to a hand massage through Korean Hand Acupuncture Therapy (experimental group: n=20, control group: n=20). The data were collected from April 1 to September 15 in 2005. All the patients were assessed for their nausea, vomiting and anorexia; Nausea and vomiting were measured with Rhodes INVR(Index of Nausea, Vomiting by Rhodes and McDaniel) and Anorexia was measured with VAS(Visual Analogue Scale). As an experimental treatment, the hand massage through Korean Hand Acupuncture Therapy was applied three times a day for three consecutive days. The data were collected at the time of 4 hours before the start of chemotherapy, 24hours and 48hours after hand massage respectively. The data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 11.5 program using frequency, percentage, x2-test, t-test, repeated Measures ANOVA.
Result: Severity of nausea and vomiting in hand massage through Korean Hand Acupuncture Therapy group was significantly less than that of control group(F=28.10, p=.000). Severity of anorexia in hand massage through Korean Hand Acupuncture Therapy group was also significantly less than that of control group(F=31.24, p=.000).
Conclusion: Hand massage through Korean Hand Acupuncture Therapy is effective for relieving patients’ nausea, vomiting and anorexia during chemotherapy.
