| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Objective：To assess differences in improvement of hiesho (sensitivity to cold) through a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of one group that used a self-care program (the Home Care Package Program for Relieving Hiesho) and another that did not. Results：Findings for 140 pregnant women, 73 in the experimental group and 67 in the control group, were analyzed. Participants’ body temperatures were measured after completion of the program for four weeks and compared to their temperatures before starting the program. Compared to the control group, arm skin temperature was 3.0°C (p＜0.001) higher and leg skin temperature was 1.93°C (p=0.02) higher among the experimental group, significantly higher compared to the control group.
