METHODS: A qualitative systematic review of existing literature was conducted through AMED, MEDLINE, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal checklist was employed to evaluate research quality. Subsequently, the data were extracted and synthesised utilising the JBI Qualitative Assessment and Review Instrument (QARI) tool and data synthesis was carried out through meta-aggregation.
RESULTS: A total of twenty-eight articles were incorporated into the analysis. Four synthesised findings were identified: (1) Before acupuncture: last trust and hope; (2) During acupuncture: relaxing and calming; (3) After acupuncture: mind-body effects; and (4) Practitioner-participant relationship.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings highlight the changes participants experienced before and after acupuncture sessions. Implementing additional promotional initiatives for acupuncture can increase public awareness and encourage individuals to consider it an early symptom management option.

方法:通过AMED对现有文献进行了定性系统综述,MEDLINE,Scopus,Embase,和WebofScience。JoannaBriggs研究所(JBI)的关键评估清单被用来评估研究质量。随后,使用JBI定性评估和审查工具(QARI)工具提取和合成数据,并通过荟萃进行数据合成.
结果:共28篇文献纳入分析。确定了四个综合发现:(1)针灸前:最后的信任和希望;(2)针灸期间:放松和镇静;(3)针灸后:身心影响;(4)从业者与参与者的关系。
结论:研究结果强调了参与者在针灸治疗前后经历的变化。实施其他针灸促销活动可以提高公众意识,并鼓励个人将其视为早期症状管理选择。
