Abstract:
We continued reviewing published evidence and information regarding the safety of acupuncture. Subjects in 2005 were as follows :
1. Safety during acupuncture stimulation
2. Quality and strength of acupuncture needle
3. Sterilization and storage of equipments
4. Hygienic handling of equipments
5. Relevant notices from the Government
6. Standards of notification regarding hygienic practice and contaminated wastes
We hope that the information here will influence the future school education, clinical practice, manual editing and research activities.
