Abstract:
Through review of the major databases in English and Chinese, it is found that there is an absence of articles on special coverage of compliance of research fellows and testees in acupuncture clinical trials. Therefore, the author proposed (1) The compliance of research fellows should be guaranteed through proper work division with reasonable, standard and strict research designation as well as comprehensive systems of selection, supervision and estimation. (2) The compliance of testees should be guaranteed through enhancing of the right to know, improving of the medical environment and constructing a better doctor-patient relationship. Therefore, the compliance of clinical trials can be improved, the quality of clinical research enhanced and the reliability of the research results can be guaranteed.
