This study was performed to investigate the effect of Nei Guan (PC-6) moxibustion stimulation on artificial bradycardia of dogs. Xylazine was injected for inducing bradycardia. Rectal temperature, systolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, heart rate were recorded every 10 minutes for 120 minutes. Systolic blood pressure significantly increased on 40 min (p 0.05) after xylazine injection, compared with those of control group. Heart rate significantly increased on 40 min (p 0.01), 50 min (p 0.01), 60 min (p 0.01), 70 min (p 0.01), 80 min (p 0.01), 100 min (p 0.01), 120min (p 0.01) after xylazine injection, compared with those of control group. In conclusion, moxibustion of Nei Guan (PC-6) showed recovery effect in xylazine induced bradycardia in dogs.
