| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied the effect of parasympathetic auriculotherapy using the NET-2000 stimulation on smoking cessation.
The levels of parasympathetic activity obtained from the ECG recordings that were taken before and after stimulation were compared. NET-2000 stimulation increased parasympathetic activity in both groups. In particular, the increase was significant in the non-smoker group. We compared short-term continuous abstinence between a group receiving stimulation with the NET-2000 model and a group treated with varenicline. In the varenicline treatment group, the changes in the scores for items of nicotine dependence were significant. The psychological rating scales used in this study showed the same trends in both groups.
From these results, NET-2000 stimulation appeared to increase parasympathetic activity and show the efficacy of auriculotherapy for smoking cessation.
