| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study of “rub” stimuli on patients with impaired consciousness could not be conducted due to coronary infection, as consent could not be obtained from the subject's family. The following are the results for healthy subjects. Respiration rate and EEG were measured after 6 minutes of rest and 3 minutes of back stimulation. Respiration rate increased significantly more with the “rub” stimulus than with the “touch” stimulus. (P=0.039) Alpha was significantly lower in the EEG for the “rub” stimulus than for the “touch” stimulus. (P=0.011) VAS increased significantly more pleasantly than pre-stimulus for both stimuli. (P=0.007,P=0.0003) Oxytocin was significantly higher with the “rub” stimulus. This suggests that rubbing the back for 3 minutes is a pleasant sensation and is useful as a method of reducing pain.
