Methods: The subjects of this study were patients with insomnia of phlegm-dampness zhongzu who were treated in our hospital. 36 patients were enrolled from March 2019 to November the following year. The patients were randomly divided into study group and control group, with 18 cases in each group. The control group was treated with acupuncture at Anming, and the research group was treated with Sanyinjiao warm acupuncture on this basis. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score, usage of ancillary drugs, and the incidence of insomnia symptoms were compared between the two groups. Results: The PSQI scores in both groups were lower than before treatment, but the score in the study group was lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The usage of ancillary drugs and the incidence of insomnia symptoms in the study group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Anming acupuncture combined with Sanyinjiao warm acupuncture can effectively reduce usage of ancillary drugs in the treatment of insomnia of phlegm-dampness zhongzu, help patients reduce insomnia symptoms, and improve patients' sleep quality.展开更多
